TOPIC 2:

In the study of probiotics can improve mood: a correlational study investigating the relationship
between probiotics and over all mental health, there is evidence that when individuals suffer
from indigestion (e.g., acid reflux, Crohn's Disease, or any other stomach related ailment), there
is a significant likelihood that those individuals have also experienced various mental health
symptoms. According to a national survey completed in 2013 by the National Alliance on Mental
Illness, mood disorders are the third most common cause of hospitalization in the U.S. for adults
between the ages 18 to 44. Gastrointestinal diseases affect an estimated 60 to 70 million
Americans annually. More than 100 trillion bacteria live in our gut and 99% of the DNA in our
body is bacterial. A study that was conducted in Ireland found that the mice that were born by
caesarean section were significantly more anxious and had symptoms of depression. The
inability to pick up their mothers’ vaginal microbes during birth may cause lifelong changes in
mental health. Probiotics help treat irritable bowel syndrome, infectious diarrhea, some skin
conditions, and help to improve digestion and regularity overall. The purpose of this study was
to determine whether there is a significant correlation between the use of a daily probiotic and
the quality of general mental health. While the main hypotheses for this study were not fully
supported, there are significant findings to discuss with regard to mental and physical health,
exercise and probiotics.
