Target gb-X™ is a probiotic dietary supplement specifically designed to support positive mood by influencing the gut-brain axis through the microbiome. It contains a blend of 9 probiotic strains that have been clinically shown to reduce overall cognitive reactivity to sad moods, negative and aggressive thoughts. 5 billion CFU in one pack.

Probiotics and the gut-brain axis

The gut-brain axis refers to the bidirectional communication network between the central and autonomic nervous systems and the gut. Gut-brain communication is mediated by neural pathways involving the immune system, endocrine connections such as the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, and the enteric nervous system. It is now known that the gut microbiota plays a central role in the communication between the gut and the brain. This is a complex interaction, as the microbiota interacts locally with intestinal cells and communicates directly with the central nervous system through neuroendocrine, immune, and metabolic pathways. Research into gut-brain mechanisms today is rapidly expanding our understanding of cognitive health and the role of probiotics in it.
