The intestine, also known as the gastrointestinal tract, is a central organ of the digestive system in the human body. It has the task of processing food, absorbing nutrients and eliminating waste products.
Stress can have an effect on the intestines. The so-called "gut-brain connection" shows that there is a close relationship between the brain and the gut. Stress, especially chronic stress, can lead to inflammation in the gut, which in turn can cause digestive problems, food intolerances and irritable bowel syndrome:
-
Irritable bowel syndrome: Stress can worsen or trigger symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating and diarrhea.
-
Changes in the intestinal flora: Stress can disrupt the balance of intestinal bacteria, which can lead to dysbiosis. Healthy intestinal flora is important for digestion and the immune system.
-
Inflammation: Chronic stress can lead to an increased inflammatory response in the body, which can negatively impact gut health.
