In Brief
Moody Microorganisms
Bacteria and viruses dwelling in our gut produce compounds that can interact with our nervous system in ways that appear to affect our anxiety and stress responses.
Early clinical trials suggest that bacterial remedies, such as probiotic supplements, may be useful in treating several types of psychological distress.
Eventually individual assessments of gut microbial communities could allow physicians and researchers to tailor treatments for mental disorders.
