    Brain anatomy and the brain’s capacity for cognitive function are determined by what happens in the gut. Digestive events occurring in the intestines affect the daily function and cognitive function of the brain. The cognitive capacity of the brain is vital at all stages of life. During childhood and adolescence, nutrition with safe and healthy foods is the gold standard for brain development and cognitive performance. Neurotransmitter cells in the intestines produce most of the dopamine and serotonin hormones that the body needs. Serotonin and dopamine produced in the intestines then pass to the brain and enable communication between nerve cells in the brain. Micronutrients are an important component that enables communication between nerve cells, thanks to the metabolic activities of cells as well as dopamine synthesis, serotonin and myelin sheath formation. Safe and healthy nutrition; is a foreign concept to many school children.
    For this reason, the way to increase the anatomy of the brain and the cognitive capacity of the brain is through intestines, digestion, safe food and movement.
