In recent years, we have become privy to a host of research showing that the friendly bacteria living in our gut (also known as probiotics) are incredibly good for us — from regulating inflammation and immunity to maintaining mental health.
With the microbiome — or each individual’s collection of bacteria — being dubbed the next big frontier in medicine, this field of research is only set to grow.
Which brings us to a new study coming out of the University of New South Wales. A team of researchers have found probiotics may be helpful in protecting our youngest from the generational effects of another huge societal issue: stress.
Individuals who are exposed to stress early in life end up being more vulnerable, and there’s a higher incidence of stress-related disorders in those individuals.
Let us backtrack a few steps.
What do you mean by generational stress?
As the average age of Australians managing psychological disorders lowers, it is arguably more important than ever to be identifying early risk factors — and how they manifest.
Co-lead study author and PhD student Caitlin Cowan believes early life stressors are a risk factor.
“We know that individuals who are exposed to stress early in life end up being more vulnerable and there’s a higher incidence of stress-related disorders in those individuals,” Cowan told The Huffington Post Australia.
