Cognition

Psychobiotics is a scientific term for probiotics, or even prebiotics that, when consumed in sufficient amounts, may positively influence mental well-being by acting through the gut-brain axis. They are part of a growing area of research focused on probiotics for mental health and gut-brain support, with potential effects on mood, stress response, cognition, and emotional health.*

Scientists are continuing to explore how these beneficial microbes may work through mechanisms such as neurotransmitter production, gut barrier integrity, and vagus nerve signaling, making this an exciting and rapidly evolving field.

The gut-brain axis is the two-way communication network connecting the digestive system and the brain, working through the vagus nerve, the immune system, and chemical messengers, including neurotransmitters. Approximately 90% of the body's serotonin is produced in the gut, which is why gut health is increasingly understood to be connected to how we think and feel. Supporting your gut microbiome with a daily probiotic supplement supports digestive health, which is one component of this broader gut-brain system.*
