Formulated to help you deal with occasional sleeplessness, but can also help support feelings of relaxation and reduced tension. Probiotics for women and men, and teens / children ages 8+.* The Gut-Brain Axis and the Psychobiome - The gut-brain axis, a bidirectional communication between gut microbiota and the central nervous system (CNS), may play a role in cognitive function, digestion, and mood. Studies show that 80-90% of the fibers in the vagus nerve are linked to the gut, providing a physical link through which the gut microbiota communicate with the brain. Relatedly, the term psychobiome is used to describe the interaction between a person's collective microbiome and his mental state. A diverse and balanced microbiome can help maintain the gut-brain axis. Psychobiotic gut health supplements are used to describe the commensal bacteria that play a role in the gut-brain axis and support brain health and gut health.*

1714: A Trail-blazing Psychobiotic: Our solution to supporting the psychobiome uses cutting-edge probiotic technology. 1714, a unique strain of Bifidobacterium longum, is an up-and-coming psychobiotic that can help support the management of occasional stress and its biochemical expression within the human body. This psychobiotic exerts its effect as a supportive ' brain supplement ' by targeting the HPA axis to support healthy cortisol levels. 1714 may support mental health, cognitive process, neurotransmitters, and overall feeling of well-being. In a 4-week human trial, 1714 reduced perceived stress, improved memory performance, reduced mental fatigue, positively supported brainwave activity, and improved ability to handle occasional stress.* Probiotics for men and women.
