I've been taking Fem Dophilus for the past 3 weeks and my stomach is noticeably smaller. I have a bowel movement every morning, and I used to only have one every other morning. (hope that's not TMI). I have lost about 3 pounds without exercise and people keep asking if I've lost weight. I don't know if it's coincidence or the FEM Dophilus but I do know I've experienced a significant change since taking them. I’ve had a similar experience as Mary.

I've seen countless people that really, as in really, changed their bodies with proper intake of probiotics, namely kefir. I'm actually also a believer because it helped my body too.

I make kefir at home with kefir grains. It’s really better that way.

We're proud to use only organic cane sugar in all our kefirs, even the non-organic ones. If you look at our ingredient list, it's blissfully short. Anna, that’s a good point.

It only has 2-3 while our kefir has 10. And yes, tzatziki is a great way to use kefir.

I'm so curious what causes different body types to metabolize food differently, and this research may shed new light. I'm with you - a probiotic supplement seems the most calorie friendly and direct way to get my dose of friendly bugs, plus you avoid all the additives and sugar in some probiotic foods. I've been taking Nutri-Health's Flora Source because it has 16 probiotic strains (online at <a href="http://www.nutri-health.com/" rel="nofollow">Nutri-health.com</a>), but I've heard good things about the other brands too. Happy, healthy digestion :) ~ Anna M I also thought this study was really interesting!

Weight loss and tummy bloat can really be affected. I've been using Vidazorb chewable probiotics for the last two months and I've lost over 10 lbs. I can't say it is all the probiotics - I've been eating healthier and walking alot - but seems like they might have given me an extra boost. Great post.
