Be very careful with probiotics; just loading your system with random strains of bacteria from your local health food store can have serious consequences. I have IBS and an anxiety disorder that had been in remission for years. I tried Primadophilus Optima and it wrecked me. I went from a mild IBS-C to severe IBS-D, and my panic attacks came back with an intensity unlike anything I've ever experienced.
I don't doubt that intestinal bacteria are related to IBS and anxiety disorders and that certain probiotic treatments may help. But such supplementation should be based on detailed research of each of the strains taken, much of which does not even exist yet.
