Placebo probiotic effects on gut health in mild GI symptoms
This study tests whether a placebo probiotic can improve gut health and overall well-being in people with mild digestive issues like gas, bloating, or irregularity. If you have mild symptoms that don't stop your daily activities, this trial may help understand if believing you're taking a probiotic can make you feel better.
