An exploratory, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study.
In this exploratory, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, 50 women aged 45 to 65 years old took part.
The women received either a daily dose of probiotics (Lab4P) or placebo for 4-months.
The women in the probiotic group showed a 40% reduction in anxiety, an 18.5% improvement in quality of life and indications of improved sleep, resulting in a significant 17.5% improvement in overall well-being compared to those in the placebo. Incidence rates of indigestion and stomach pains were reduced.
