0:47.2	Rouss Rado. This is Dr. Roushaw, and let's talk about gut health research. I've been trying to break down the research that we cover
0:58.3	to one podcast dedicated to probiotic research, another podcast as this one will be, to a broader
1:07.9	gut health research category that does not involve probiotics.
1:13.4	A third type of podcast that covers research on thyroid and female hormone health, and then
1:21.4	a fourth that is essentially related to diet, lifestyle, sleep, vitamin D, exercise, and kind of is more of a
1:32.2	popery, if you will. So today we'll go into gut health updates that are not probiotic in
1:39.5	nature. And the first study was a review of N. Haynes data, so population-based survey data,
1:49.4	essentially looking at just under 32,000 individuals followed for 11 years. Compared to healthy
1:58.1	controls, those who had moderate to severe depression had higher rates of
2:06.0	digestive symptoms, diarrhea, constipation, stomach illness, bowel liquid, sounds fun, or bowel mucous.
2:12.6	So, not surprising that we see in this very well-performed N. Haynes data set that people who have
2:21.4	depression have a higher occurrence of digestive symptoms. This is the gut-brain connection.
2:30.1	This should not be news necessarily to our audience because we're kind of on the cutting edge of this.
2:35.8	But it's great to see more and more data here now at the population observational level really showing that even when we get this sample size high up as to almost 32,000 in this case, we're seeing, yes, there is a signal that the gut and the brain
2:54.9	functioned together. And we know from much of the research that we've discussed in the podcast
2:59.7	that while this is bidirectional, gut can impact brain and brain can impact gut, it seems that the more common direction is problems
