What is the "gut-brain axis," where gut bacteria affect the brain? A surprising relationship between dementia and gut bacteria! Is traditional Japanese food actually the best? Adding something you can buy anywhere makes it even more effective!? "Gut" and "brain." These two seemingly unrelated things are actually closely connected! The phenomenon of stomach aches when stressed is a perfect example of this. That's the "gut-brain axis." Dr. Naoki Saji of the National Center for Geriatrics and Gerontology was fascinated by the gut-brain axis and, astonishingly, revealed for the first time in Japan, a surprising fact: there's a relationship between dementia and the state of gut bacteria! According to Dr. Saji, there are many types of gut bacteria, but it seems that dementia is more common in people who have a high concentration of a certain type of gut bacteria! However, the causal relationship is unclear. Meanwhile, he also continued his research on "dietary habits that reduce the risk of dementia," and discovered a surprising fact! The key is to drink something in addition to a modern Japanese diet! Furthermore, there are other recommended foods besides Japanese food!?
