NCT ID NCT07408518
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a probiotic supplement called iVS-1, containing Bifidobacterium adolescentis, can reduce moderate to severe digestive symptoms like bloating, gas, and belly pain. About 92 adults will take either the probiotic or a placebo for 6 weeks and report their symptoms through online surveys. The goal is to see if this probiotic improves gut health and related issues like sleep and stress.

- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a simple, over-the-counter probiotic option for managing everyday digestive discomfort like bloating and gas.
