Many people take probiotics to relieve digestive conditions, lose weight, and maintain a healthier immune system.
(Health-NewsWire.Net, January 13, 2016 ) Carson City, NV -- The research journal Obesity recently published a small study about the effects of probiotics on weight loss. According to the paper, probiotics can keep the body from gaining weight especially for healthy young adults who follow a high-fat and high-calorie diet.
The study spanned for a period of four weeks. Twenty non-obese healthy young men, ages 18 to 30, were tested for this purpose. All the participants implemented a high-fat and high-energy diet during the time frame. Some of them were also given a milkshake that contained lactobacillus and bifidobacterium (two well-known strains of probiotic bacteria), while the rest drank a placebo milkshake. The results revealed that the body mass gain and fat buildup of the participants who consumed the probiotic milkshake were lower compared to the placebo sample group.
Several experts from the probiotic industry weighed in on the implications of this recent finding. An expert from Life Glow Products, a non-GMO health company based in Nevada, expressed his delight upon reading the study.
"It has long been known that probiotics are good for the gut, but the link between probiotics and weight loss is noteworthy especially now that more people are interested in natural weight loss options. Although this study is relatively small compared to the previous ones, the results are nevertheless astounding. It also further strengthens the mounting evidence that probiotics can be beneficial for weight loss," the Life Glow expert remarked.
In-depth studies on probiotics and weight loss are currently ongoing. The remarkable health benefits of this good bacteria will be soon be fully uncovered and will help many people in the long run.
"This probiotic weight loss study has definitely offered many insights and endless possibilities. Research can help not just those who want to slim down, but also the millions of people who suffer from diabetes, obesity, and other weight-related conditions. We're very excited to see where this goes," the Life Glow expert added.
