Prebiotics as an adjunct therapy for posttraumatic stress disorder: a pilot randomized controlled trial by Robin M. Voigt, Robin M. Voigt, Robin M. Voigt, Phillip A. Engen, Michelle Villanueva, Simona A. Bambi, Stefan J. Green, Stefan J. Green, Ankur Naqib, Ankur Naqib, Shohreh Raeisi, Maliha Shaikh, Bruce R. Hamaker, Bruce R. Hamaker, Thaisa M. Cantu-Jungles, Thaisa M. Cantu-Jungles, Sarah A. Pridgen, Philip Held, Ali Keshavarzian, Ali Keshavarzian, Ali Keshavarzian, Ali Keshavarzian

“…This proof-of-concept, pilot trial was designed to assess: (1) the relationship between severity of PTSD symptoms and microbiota composition and SCFA levels (i.e., acetate, propionate, butyrate), (2) if CBT treatment with a concomitant prebiotic fiber intervention would beneficially impact clinical outcomes in veterans with PTSD, (3) evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a prebiotic intervention as an adjunct treatment to CBT, and (4) assess the impact of treatment on the intestinal microbiota and stool SCFA (i.e., mechanism).ResultsThis study found that PTSD severity may be associated with reduced abundance of taxa capable of producing the SCFA propionate, and that a subset of individuals with PTSD may benefit from a microbiota-modifying prebiotic intervention.ConclusionThis study suggests that targeting the intestinal microbiome through prebiotic supplementation could represent a promising avenue for enhancing treatment outcomes in some individuals with PTSD.Clinical trial registrationhttps://clinicaltrials.gov/, identifier NCT05424146.…”
