How Does Taking Probiotics Help In Losing Weight?

Obesity is common health condition these days. Are you wondering why am I calling obesity a health condition? The reason is that obesity or being overweight becomes a reason for many other diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes type 2, and even cancer in few cases. Every day thousands of people make a resolution to lose weight but they usually end-up adopting techniques that may cause them harm in the long term. Slow and gradual weight loss is considered to be healthy weight loss. Therefore, one should first make up their mind to stay consistent on the journey. In addition to this, while taking your calorie intake under consideration and looking forward to moving your body, you should also consider taking healthy supplements that either makes your body strong or facilitates you in losing weight.

Probiotic supplements fall into the category of supplements that facilitates in losing weight. Our body is a complex set of bacteria. Few of them are considered as healthy bacteria, and few of them are bad bacteria. The balance between these two categories of bacteria keeps our body healthy. Probiotics are live bacteria that are already present in our body and helps in different digestive processes. The imbalance between Bacteroidetes (Good bacteria) and Firmicutes (Bad bacteria) bacteria leads a person to gain weight. Higher firmicutes increase the extraction of sugar and store it as fat. Therefore, to regulate your weight you can take probiotic supplements to increase the number count of healthy bacteria in your body.

What Do Probiotics Do?

Probiotics are naturally occurring in our intestine and gut flora. Probiotics in gut flora and intestine help in the production of nutrients like vitamin K and Vitamin-B complex. They also break the fibre that remains undigested. Taking probiotic supplements promotes healthy gut flora which further plays its part in improving the digestive system. Healthy gut flora also promotes mental health by reducing synthetic inflammation in the brain.

Probiotics that contain Lactobacillus fermentum and amylovorus are helpful in improving your metabolism which promotes weight loss. The fat is used up by fat oxidation which means that these probiotics help the body to use fat as a source of energy instead of storing it.

Our genes are another determinant of our body shape. They also play an influential part in shaping our ability to digest and assimilate food. Probiotic supplements help by fighting against your genes by promoting a healthy environment in your body.

Probiotics release appetite reducing hormones which makes you feel full for longer hours. If you are wondering that taking fewer calories will cause your body harm then be rest assured that probiotics help the body to absorb more nutrients from food as they convert them into bio-available form.

When you are buying a probiotic to lose weight always go through its formula. Make sure it contains these bacteria such as Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bacillus subtilis, Lactobacillus helvecticus, Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Lactobacillus Plantarum.

How Effective Are Probiotics for Weight loss?

There is no universal answer to this question. However, previous studies have shown that you may lose up to 5% of your belly fat in 3 months without exercising and diet control if you are using probiotics. The number seems small but the rate is comparatively fast.
