Brief Summary: This is a 3-arm, parallel-group, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot trial. Sixty adults presenting with depressive symptoms will be randomly allocated to one of 3 groups comprising (1) Bifidobacterium adolescentis or (2) Lactocaseibacillus rhamnosus LGG and Bifidobacterium BB-12 or (3) a placebo for 12 weeks. At baseline (Visit 2), midpoint (Visit 3) and end-of-study (Visit 4) visits, participants meeting eligibility criteria will complete the BDI-II, BAI, DASS-21 and PROMIS Sleep questionnaires and blood samples will be collected for biomarker assessments. Fecal samples will be collected prior to the baseline and end-of-study visits for microbial profiling.
