Probiotic consumption relieved human stress and anxiety symptoms via modulating the gut microbiota and neuroactive potential

Stress has been demonstrated to affect human intestinal microbiota, causing mental health derangements like anxiety and depression. The functions of the gut microbiota include the synthesis and/or consumption of several neuroactive molecules, and several human studies demonstrated how probiotics can alter neurotransmitter levels by influencing the microbiome. However, several challenges stood in the face of […]

Bifidobacterium longum and prebiotic interventions restore early-life high-fat/high-sugar diet-induced alterations in feeding behavior in adult mice

An unhealthy diet disrupts feeding behavior and the gut microbiota, with unclear persistence of early-life dietary effects. This research examines whether microbiota-targeted interventions, namely FOS + GOS or Bifidobacterium longum APC1472, can reverse alterations in feeding behavior induced by early-life high-fat/high-sugar (HFHS) diets in adult mice. The study found that exposure to early-life high-fat/high-sugar (HFHS) diets only […]
