Is Your Child’s Gut Behind Their Behaviour?
Here’s what you can do NOW
If your child is dealing with frequent meltdowns, anxiety, aggression, or poor focus… it might not just be “behavioural.”
Their gut could be driving it.
At Neuromed Clinic, we see it all the time: kids struggling emotionally, mentally, and physically – and underneath it all, signs of gut dysfunction like:
Recurrent tummy aches, loose stools or constipation
Constant colds or infections
Skin issues like eczema
Food intolerances or fussy eating
A history of antibiotics or reflux medications in early life
And when these signs are present, the gut-brain connection becomes impossible to ignore.
The Gut-Brain Axis:
A Missing Link in Children's Health
Your child’s gut and brain are constantly talking to each other via the gut-brain axis.
When the gut is inflamed, imbalanced or lacking beneficial bacteria, it can impact:
Mood regulation (hello meltdowns and emotional outbursts)
Cognitive function (like focus, memory and learning)
Immune system resilience
Sleep and energy
Even things like sensory processing, tics, and OCD-like behaviour can be tied back to what’s happening in the gut.
How can we help?
We take a root cause, evidence-based approach to your child’s health.
That means we don’t just “treat symptoms” – we explore the deeper drivers behind their challenges.
Our gut-focused assessments may include:
✅ Microbiome and digestive health testing
✅ Analysis of immune and inflammatory markers
✅ Food sensitivities and nutrient deficiencies
✅ A detailed look into your child’s history, environment, and behaviour
From there, we create a personalised care plan to support gut healing, neurological health, and emotional regulation – naturally and gently.
