In this article, researchers from York University and McMaster University in Canada systematically evaluated current literature on the impact of probiotic supplementation on human anxiety and depression symptoms. Their review was published in the journal Nutrition Research.
The researchers concluded that a better understanding of developmental, modulatory, and metagenomic influences on GI microbiota, especially in relation to mood and mental health, is needed and should be prioritized by future studies in this area.
