Description

Research has recently shown that there is a connection between sleep and gut- brain axis (GBA) communication. Also, people who suffer with altered sleep cycles often have altered gut microbiomes. Since the gut microbiome communicates with many systems of the body the question that has been asked is can alteration in the microbiome impact these systems and hence affect sleep. This leads to the possibility of creating strategies that impact both immune, endocrine, nervous system and sleep disorders. This webinar will investigate and give understanding to the connection between the GBA, sleep and neuro-immune networks. The clinician will walk away with a better understanding of these communications as well as a better understanding of how the microbiome influences sleep.
