Summary

Gut health has been linked with improvement in mental health but no research has been done to evaluate if improving gut health can have an effect on alcohol and substance cravings. This pilot study is to evaluate if any decrease in cravings can be found with probiotics/prebiotics by improving gut health. Participants will take a pre-survey to evaluate their cravings. Participants will then be started on a regimen of probiotic and prebiotic with a pickle daily for 30 days to improve gut health. Then participants will take the same survey to evaluate if there has been any decrease in cravings.
