Daily supplementation with the Lab4P probiotic consortium induces significant weight loss in overweight adults
Abstract This 9-month randomised, parallel, double-blind, single-centre, placebo-controlled study (PROBE, ISRCTN18030882) assessed the impact of probiotic supplementation on bodyweight. Seventy overweight Bulgarian participants aged 45–65 years with BMI 25–29.9 kg/m2 received a daily dose of the Lab...

Seventy overweight Bulgarian participants aged 45–65 years with BMI 25–29.9 kg/m2 received a daily dose of the Lab4P probiotic comprising lactobacilli and bifidobacteria (50 billion cfu/day).
