After his training at Princeton, Johns Hopkins, and the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Jackson began treating patients with a myriad of intestinal concerns. As a practicing gastroenterologist in Central Pennsylvania for 40 years, Frank was always fascinated with “all things gut related.”
“Our two brains ‘talk’ to each other, so therapies that help one may help the other. In a way, gastroenterologists (doctors who specialize in digestive conditions) are like counselors looking for ways to soothe the second brain.” – Jay Pasricha, M.D., director of the Johns Hopkins Center Neurogastroenterology, explaining the gut-brain connection.
All of us feel sad or down sometimes. These feelings may be the result of life circumstances, from a lost job to the death of a close family member or friend. Other times we are not clear why we feel sad—we may have a genetic vulnerability to depression, faulty mood regulation by the brain, or even a chemical reaction to specific medications.
For some of us, the feelings of sadness lift quickly. Sometimes we have a “perfect storm” of several factors coming together to lead us into a major depression.
You go for a walk and decide which direction to go—you remember that a vicious dog barks at you if you turn left. You go right but notice there is construction that includes the sidewalk. You talk to one of the workers and find out the construction will be done within the week. You’ll come back this way when it is over. You duck into an alley that offers a shortcut back to your house.
You have demonstrated all the aspects of healthy cognition—the brain-based skills you need to function successfully in daily life, from perceiving your environment accurately (noting the choice of walkways), motor skills (turning right instead of left), language and social skills (engaging in a conversation in a way that allows you to gain the information you need), learning (you’ll come back this way after construction is over), and problem solving (you figure out a short-cut to get home).
Simple, right? In schizophrenia, all of these basic “brain-skills” may break down, with devastating consequences. These cognition deficits often make a normal life, with a stable job, friendships, marriage, and even everyday social interactions impossible. About one in 100 of us may develop this incurable disease.
Finding Prebiotin was nothing short of a miracle, right when I needed it most. Adding this pure prebiotic powder to my beverages every day, began to quickly reverse the damage that had been done. Within days, my inflammation began to subside, and my joints were less painful. Within weeks, both my willpower to choose healthier food options and my energy levels began to re-emerge. My emotions and outlook began to feel stronger and more resilient. Now sitting here months later, it’s hard to recognize where I was at mentally, emotionally and physically prior to having Prebiotin in my life. This recent journey back to wellness was a grim reminder of how quickly all of the hard work that goes into properly caring for oneself can be compromised, leaving us vulnerable and defenseless. I am so grateful to have found something that benefits my health and well-being in SO many ways.
