Gut & Psychology Syndrome (GAPS)
What Is Gut & Psychology Syndrome?
Our bodies’ physical and mental health are completely dependent on the health of our digestive system. GAP Syndrome describes the impact of gut health on the body and mind.
GAPS (Gut and psychology/physiology syndrome) practitioners explore and treat their clients’ gut health with the goal of improving mental and physical health challenges.
Understanding GAPS
Gut and psychology syndrome describes conditions where gut health is primarily affecting neurotransmitters. This might be expressed as conditions like autism, dyslexia, ADD/ADHD, epilepsy, dyspraxia, anxiety, depression, schizophrenia and eating disorders. Sometimes the condition will present itself as foggy thinking, impaired memory and difficulty concentrating.
Gut and physiology syndrome is when gut health is reflected in other areas of the body, for example, digestive disorders, autoimmune diseases (including health problems like Diabetes Type 1 and arthritis), fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, ME, asthma, allergies, other neurological conditions, hormonal problems and skin conditions like eczema.
Getting the right support and understanding how the digestive system and brain are linked can be an effective way to unravel health concerns.
