The Gut Microbiome and Mental Health: What Should We Tell Our Patients?: Le microbiote Intestinal et la Sant é Mentale : que Devrions-Nous dire à nos Patients?

We summarize the current evidence in relation to microbiome-based strategies for various psychiatric disorders and provide some practical advice that can be given to patients seeking to try a probiotic for mental health benefit.
