Abstract :Our microbiome consists of trillions of microorganisms. Probiotics are known to be favorable microorganisms (bacteria and yeast) to keep the gut healthy and other health effects. They have been shown to possess positive effects not only in digestion, but also on heart, brain, etc. Lately, many studies pointed out to promoting activities of probiotics in mental diseases through gut microbiota, which is so-called “psychobiome”. It is now clear that bacterial inhabitants of the intestines may impact neurons and the brain through some mechanisms. Consequently, psychobiotics have been described as a new class of probiotics. In the current mini review, the role of psychobiotics is scrutinized focusing on some neurological and mental diseases.
