List of Probiotics

Have you ever felt butterflies in your stomach? What about an upset stomach while nervous or a gut in your chest feeling when scared? There is no denying the fact that our brain is directly connected via neural pathways to our gut. And new research from UCLA, Harvard, etc. have dubbed a new term Psychobiotics to illustrate how probiotics affect our mood.

I have compiled a list of Probiotics that are shown to be effective for regulating mood.

Utilizing the kind that contain live cultures of the probiotic is a key element. Another important consideration is the storage of the supplements. Unlike vitamins that generally do well on any pantry shelf, probiotics should be stored in a controlled cool environment that is dry and out of direct sunlight.
