The care provided to children by their mothers is important for the development of a healthy stress response. Many things may affect the quality of a mother’s care, such stress, environment, and nutrition. Probiotics, a form of good bacteria found in the digestive system, have been shown to improve the wellbeing of offspring in rodents who are exposed to on-going forms of stress. We wish to investigate if probiotics improve a mother’s care towards her offspring, and the later ability of these offspring to respond to stress in a healthy way as they develop in adolescence.
