Healthier gut bacteria and weight loss achieved through magnetic brain stimulation

A new study shows that a person’s gut microbiota can be positively altered through non-invasive transcranial magnetic stimulation   For several years now, researchers have been building on a series of studies that have displayed links between non-invasive, deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (dTMS) and reduced food cravings. Now, for the first time, research has shown that...
