The Second Brain
We've often heard of mind control, but what about gut control? The truth is, we don't actually have another brain hiding out in our bodies helping us make decisions, but our gut can influence the decisions we make. As AsapSCIENCE explains, sneaky microbes in our stomach produce both dopamine and serotonin, manipulating our cravings for their own benefit. So maybe you shouldn't always go with your gut.
