Gut Bacteria’s Role in Anxiety and Depression: It’s Not Just In Your Head

Someone started taking anti depressants for their depressant and it wasn’t long before their potency wasn’t there anymore. They decided to try pro biotics because of the advice of someone else they had worked for. There are microbes inside of our gut that can influence the way we think and feel and there is something to having healthy bacteria in our gut to make sure that functions well. We all know, that when we’re nervous, it’s not just in our head, it’s in our gut too.
