It's pretty safe to assume that any person with any chronic disease or chronic syndrome has some gut microbe issues as a part of the overall picture. Maybe causative, maybe a side effect, maybe a result of disease.
Probably the first pace to start healing any chronic illness is the gut. And that does not mean probiotics. It means eating the right foods - low or no sugars, low or no starches, easy to digest, many colored foods on the plate, gut friendly foods such as sauerkraut and kefir, no processed foods, organic and non-GMO as much as possible, Glutamine supplements, maybe Licorice supplements, and gut friendly herbs which kill off bad yeast, fungus, mold and bactyeria while supporting natural gut bacteria.
I see reference to various gut bacteria but that really isn't the main thing. The main thing is a leaky gut - poor integrity of the intestinal wall, which allows undigested molecules of food to slip into the bloodstream, causing depression, anxiety, brain fog, auto immune things, allergies and sensitivities.
If someone truly wants to restore gut integrity as fast as possible in terms of the bacteria, the only way to really do that his with a fecal transplant. That's right, they take tested safe feces from a healthy donor and implant it into your intestines.
Lexapro or Seroquel are examples of how we attempt to treat gut problems that show up in the head.
