A recent study published in the Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders unveils groundbreaking solutions for neurodevelopmental disorders. This is the first double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled trial aimed at exploring the impact of a single probiotic strain on behavioral changes in preschool children aged 2.5–7 years with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), specifically targeting the gut-brain axis (GBA). Findings from the study provide support for the notion that a brief 2-month intervention with a high dose of PS128 effectively improved certain internalizing issues in young children with ASD.
