title: Species and strain specificity of Lactobacillus probiotics effect on weight regulation.
abstract: Certain strains of Lactobacillus appear to have a reproducible effect on weight as a weight-gain effect in lean humans and animals or a weight-loss effect in overweight/obese humans and animals. These results are completely sufficient to capture the attention of the scientific community to assess the effect on the weight of Lactobacillus-containing probiotics sold for human consumption.
