The gut-brain axis is a system composed of the brain and the gut in the human body. More and more studies have shown that the gut microbiota can regulate the body's mood, cognition, memory, etc., and is closely correlated with neurological diseases such as anxiety and depression, autism, and Alzheimer's disease.
