What is your Gut telling your Brain?
When you are under stress, your liver produces extra blood sugar (glucose) to give you more energy. The unused blood sugar is then reabsorbed by the body. If you’re under chronic stress, your body may not be able to keep up with this surge of extra glucose, and you may be at an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes among other health issues.
The rush of hormones, rapid breathing, and increased heart rate can upset your digestive system. You’re more likely to have heartburn or acid reflux. While stress doesn’t cause ulcers — a bacterium called H. pylori does — it may cause existing ulcers to act up. You might experience nausea, vomiting, or a stomach ache. Stress can affect the way food moves through your body, leading to diarrhea or constipation.

The enteric nervous system has been called “the second brain,” and it’s in constant contact with the one in our skull. That’s why just thinking about food can lead . . . . ”
