The trial, presented at the 2023 International Congress of Parkinson’s Disease and Movement Disorders (MDS), held August 27-31 in Copenhagen, Denmark, featured 74 individuals who were randomly assigned to probiotic treatment (n = 38) or placebo (n = 36) for a 12-week period. Investigators observed specific between-group differences in the trial, as probiotic-treated patients demonstrated enriched bacteria of health-beneficial properties. These included bacterial families odoribacteraceae, enterococcaceae, genera veillonella, and species blautia faecicola. Treated patient also saw significant reduction in time to ON time (P = .027) and non-motor symptom total score (P = .005), which was mainly derived by reduction in sleep/fatigue (P = .007) and gastrointestinal (P <.001) domain scores.2
