This project collects data from various experiments to gauge the efficacy of probiotics. Particularly, we sought to determine if they are actually effective over the short- to medium-term for the average consumer. This was done by giving an experimental group probiotics and having them complete memory tests over four-week intervals. This project will also give a brief overview of the gut microbiome, and explain how probiotics can communicate with the brain.
