Butyrate may help unipolar and bipolar disorder.

I recently started taking xylitol, which increases butyrate levels in the gut.

I'm taking a really low dose -- 2 grams a day -- but I've noticed that it elevates my mood somewhat. I'm going to gradually increase my dosage over the next couple weeks. Too much xylitol can cause bloating and/or diarrhea.
