摘要：
Compositions and methods use Bifidobacterium longum NCC3001 (ATCC BAA-999) to treat or prevent a depressive symptom. Prolonged anti-depressive effects can continue after administration of the compositions is ended. Non-limiting examples of a depressive symptom which can be treated or prevented include depressed mood； sadness； anxiety； “empty” feelings； loss of interest or pleasure； irritability； restlessness； changes in appetite or weight； sleep disturbances； lack of or decreased energy； feelings of worthlessness； guilt； helplessness； anger and hostility； difficulty in thinking, concentrating, or making decisions； hopelessness； tiredness； fatigue； memory difficulties； tearfulness； brooding； phobias； excessive worry over physical health； sexual dysfunction； persistent physical symptoms that do not respond to treatment； and combinations thereof. These depressive symptoms can be associated with a depressive state or depressive disorder or can be found sub-clinically or not associated with these depressive states/disorders (e.g., not part of a syndrome or psychiatric disorder).
