is there any actual science about gut feelings, and them sometimes being accurate if not precise?
Yes.
>>16976695sweet. care to tell me abt it a little? For years I've always had sporadic gut feelings about something awful happening And no having a period never had anything to do with it, and half the time something did happen that in tamest cases affected my mood during the day.

So basically, your frontal lobe in the brain(part of the brain that is responsible for all complex tasks like thinking) is divided into several parts. One of it is vmPFC(ventromedial prefrontal cortex) that is heavily wired to hippocampus(memories) and amygdala(fear,stress,emotions and etc)while dlPFC(dorsolateral cortex) is pure analytical, vmpfc analyzes all of your past memories,experiences/emotions and tries to answer/predict what to do nextbasically that is your "gut feeling"
if you are interested in how people decide, work and how their upbringins and etc influence their actionsi recommend reading "behave" by sapolskygreat book that explains a lot of things in details(including brain parts)
