In doing my last posts, I became aware of this Dutch probiotic company, http://consument.winclove.nl/, which does canned probiotic mixtures as well as custom formulations from 100 strains they have. They declare and document every strain used — which is ideal.

They have nine canned probiotic mixtures which I have extracted a matrix of strains below:

Their literature is available at: http://b2b.winclove.nl/Our-formulations/ecologic.html

Some of their products are available via these online seller (all in the netherlands)

Depression

My last post looked at depression, which the Sense probiotic above is targeted at. It contains:

• B. bifidum W23,
• B. lactis W52,
• L. acidophilus W37,
• L. brevis W63,
• L. casei W56 – other L.casei are associated with reduction of depression, Lactobacillus casei strain Shirota (LcS) [Yakult]  significant decrease in anxiety symptoms among those taking the probiotic [2009] and Actimel (DanActive) appear to share a common ancestor [2013]
• L. salivarius W24,
• Lc. Lactis W19,
• Lc. Lactis W58

This mixture is cited in this Aug 2015 study, A randomized controlled trial to test the effect of multispecies probiotics on cognitive reactivity to sad mood. There were a few studies on some of the other strains in combination — but nothing on the individual strains.
