The Gut and Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)

Called the Second Brain - having the second largest number of neurons besides our brain, our gut is connected to the brain via the Gut-Brain Axis (GBA), explaining why we have “butterflies” in our stomachs when we are nervous.

Unfortunately, it appears that low-grade chronic neuroinflammation plays a critical role in forming the basis for the interaction between stress, gut microbiota, and major depressive disorder (MDD).

Interestingly, research indicates that treating the gut with Neurobiotics like PS128™ can help reduce inflammation and balance gut microbiota, significantly improving the quality of life of those with depressive disorder.

How much do you score from self-quiz for depression? If you score more than five, then it is time to pay attention and love yourself.

Mood disorder is a class of severe mental illnesses describing all types of disorders like depression, anxiety disorder, bipolar, manic depression, etc. You might wonder: what is a mood disorder, and how do we distinguish between a “normal feeling down” and a “mood disorder”?

Emotions like anxiety, feeling down, unhappy, stressed, angry, etc., all can be related to daily stress and frustration, traumatic events, or one’s personality. The difference between a normal feeling down and a mood disorder is “frequency” and “time duration.”

Theoretically speaking, negative emotions will fade away with time; it won’t be a long-lasting emotion. If the emotion carries on, then there is a chance of developing into a emotional disorder.

Low levels of serotonin will cause depression, anxiety, insomnia, and other mood problems. Seeking medical advice is a general practice, but what if there is a natural therapy rather than a medication? PS128™ is a novel psychobiotic that balances the “happy hormones” like serotonin and cortisol, and other molecules that affect mind, mood, and movement.

Happier Gut, Healthier Mind

Can probiotics help with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)?

Recently, probiotics have become a popular treatment for gut-related issues, as disruptions to gut microbiota balance may contribute to a wide range of health concerns, even mental health. One of the factors affecting your gut health is diet. An unhealthy diet destroys gut bacterial composition and reduces bacterial diversity and richness, resulting in gut inflammation.

Not all probiotics are equivalent; only specific researched strains like Neurobiotics have an impact on improving mental health symptoms. A medical probiotic can modulate neurotransmitters that affect appetite, mood, or sleep and reduce neuroinflammation in your body.

Interestingly, research indicates that Lactobacillus plantarum PS128™ appears to improve anxiety symptoms and reduce adverse reactions.

The Neurobiotic - L. plantarum PS128

Probiotics are live microorganisms, which can tip the balance of the gut microbiome, and are known for providing health benefits. But neurobiotic strains like L. plantarum PS128 - naturally isolated from the fermented vegetable Fu-Tsai - go further providing benefits for those with Autism, ADHD, Parkinson's disease, and Depression.

“Unlike pharmaceuticals merely overpowering our bodies’ functions, the fermented food-derived PS128 gently works with our microbiome.”

PS128™ clinical data on depression

The efficacy of PS128™ preclinical studies on depression was proven in a recent clinical study. After consuming PS128™, depressive severity in patients with MDD significantly ameliorated, and among them, nearly 3/4 are females.

All About Neuralli

How do I use the pills as a powder?

Swallowing the pills is not the only way to take Neuralli MP - you can also use the contents of the capsules in powder form. Neuralli MP capsules can be twisted and then pulled open.

Open the capsules over the cold food or drink that you wish to mix it with so you don’t lose any of the powder. We do not recommend mixing Neuralli MP powder into hot foods or liquids, as it will decrease the potency of Neuralli MP.



Mix thoroughly and consume within a few minutes for best results.

Real reviews from real customers

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Customer Service is fantastic, as is the product itself. Came really quickly! I ordered early in the morning, and got it in the evening the next day!!! Amazing! Benefits have been apparent as well. I have really bad anxiety, and all my meds weren't working, and giving me weird side effects. I pretty much gave up on using conventional medications and decided to just suck it up. Then I found a post on Reddit talking about how it helped someone with their anxiety and thought, what the heck, I will try it . Worst case scenario, I get GI benefits, best scenario it helps with my anxiety. I got the best case scenario, and the GI benefits! LOL. Anxiety is still there, but I can live with it , and not as debilitating as it used to be. Been taking it for about 2.5 months.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I have Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD) and Neuralli is helping me. I struggle with depression, anxiety, and mood regulation, and Neuralli boosts my baseline mood and reduces my anxiety, which makes it easier for me to regulate myself when triggered. For example, before Neuralli, a PTSD trigger might have caused anxiety that would register as a 9 on a scale of 1 to 10. With Neuralli, that same trigger might register as a 6 or 7. Since my nervous system isn't as overwhelmed, I can use tools learned in therapy to regulate myself. With Neuralli and talk therapy, I'm definitely making progress managing my C-PSTD. *For reference, I've been taking two capsules a day for five months, with no side-effects, and this is the only thing I'm taking for these issues.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I've had such a dramatic change in my depression and overall attitude since starting to take Neuralli. I had initially tried it for a month and didn't notice any changes, but when I stopped taking it for a couple of weeks, I had a massive depression bout. When I started up again my mood dramatically improved again. It's been shocking to see how much impact it has on me.

J L.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

It’s been amazing. I had problems sleeping for years and had emotional breakdowns often in presence of stress. After about a week I started sleeping 5 hours straight and after a month I notice less breakdowns.

L M.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I'm in STEM, and I normally wouldn't be caught dead making claims like this, but I must say, PS128 is the closest thing to happy pills I've ever found. I went from a chronically depressed person to an almost annoyingly happy person, while taking PS128. Thank you for everything.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I have been deeply depressed since losing my husband nearly a year ago and this product has helped me tremendously. I have not felt this well in many months. Thank you.

So Thankful to Find This

[My daughter] said she feels more even-keeled, more positive, better rested and less anxious. I am noticing a significant improvement in her ability to handle stress which would normally result in meltdowns. This probiotic really seems to be making a difference for her.

Is Neuralli MP FDA approved?

What are the common side effects?

When taking Neuralli MP as directed (2 capsules containing 60 billion CFU of L. plantarum PS128), some people may experience mild gastrointestinal upset such as gas, bloating or stool changes for up to a week, just as when starting any new probiotic. In clinical studies of the PS128 probiotic with Autistic participants or patients with Parkinson’s disease, reports of adverse effects were very low. If side effects persist, we recommend consulting your health care provider.
