    Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus.

    Are you asking if they would cause you to consume more dairy?

      I was essentially asking whether any neurological influences from those species in your gut would cause more consumption of dairy in general, or just yogurt, or neither

        It’s a very cool field, and it wouldn’t surprise me if it was happening. I didn’t find any studies specific to dairy or yogurt causing increased dairy consumption (from my quick search) but it might be out there

        https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4270213/

        This one has a lot of the keywords you can start with. I haven’t read it all, but searching for “lactobacillus” should get you to some additional articles

        Oh, i see. Well that’s a very new field of science. No idea, but I understand they usually don’t have that precise control. More like slight influence of feelings.

    Not sure about increasing dairy consumption, but some strains can increase your histamin levels while others decrease it.
