Do you mean probiotics as in through the food we eat? I wouldn't think that probiotics cause depression for several reasons. It is too extreme to simply say that probiotics CAUSE depression since there are still many studies whose purpose is to understand depression...I don't even know if there is a conclusively proven cause of depression, only symptoms that contribute to depression. I think probiotics are suppose to help with digestion so I'm not sure how that would even relate back to the chemical levels in your brain (sometimes when serotonin levels are low, people may be more prone to feeling depressed).
