Ever wonder why your brain feels like it’s stuck in slow motion while your gut is processing millions of bits of information in the blink of an eye? It’s a curious paradox, isn’t it? According to research by Zheng et al. (2024), our conscious minds manage to handle only a mere 10 to 40 bits of information per second, while our unconscious minds zip along, processing up to 100 million bits! So what gives?
