WASHINGTON: Scientists have succeeded in discovering the long-sought important connection between the gut and the brain.
According to the details, scientists say that understanding the relationship between the brain and the stomach will help in the treatment of both organs, while this research was done by experts from the American Institute for Brain Research (LIBR).
The results of the new research have been published in the international scientific journal Nature Communications. In the new study, volunteers were made to use vibrating capsules to note the brain’s response to gastrointestinal stimulation.
The researchers administered the capsules to individuals aged 18 to 40 years and discovered that the activation of the capsules can be felt under certain conditions.
Experts say that the results of the research will make it easier to discover the connection between complex brain diseases and the stomach and the connection between stomach diseases and mental thoughts and reactions. Different diseases can be treated better.
The researchers say that the capsule could make it possible to discover the brain connection of digestive system diseases such as Bowell’s syndrome or indigestion, making treatment easier.
