How GABA‑Producing Gut Microbes May Calm Anxiety: Evidence and a 10‑Day Self‑Study

Recent research links GABA‑rich fermented foods to reduced insomnia and altered gut microbes, hinting that probiotic‑driven GABA could lower anxiety. We outline the biology and a simple 10‑day self‑experiment.

Estrogen Fluctuations Reshape Gut Microbiota Diversity Across the Menstrual Cycle

Estrogen acts as a microbial regulator, shifting gut diversity across the cycle; we outline a 10‑day self‑study to track these changes.
