On this immersive Deep Dive from vbud.ai, we journey through the most underappreciated powerhouse in the human body: your digestive system. From the moment you take a bite to the trillions of microbes shaping your mood and immunity, we explore the surprising complexity of the gut.
💡 What you’ll learn:
- How digestion begins before you even eat—and why saliva is a biochemical MVP
- Why your gut lining replaces itself every 3–5 days
- What the “second brain” in your gut (the ENS) does without your conscious input
- How gut bacteria produce essential vitamins and may affect your mental health
- The difference between prebiotics and probiotics—and how to support both
- Real science behind leaky gut, SCFAs, immune signaling, and microbiome balance
With vivid storytelling and science-backed facts, this episode connects everything from taste receptors in your intestines to the gut-brain axis and the growing research around microbiota and neurological conditions like Parkinson’s and depression.
