PROBIOTICS!!

A study was done recently on people who had Gastric Bypass and it showed that those who regularly took Probiotics lost 10% (I think that was the percentage! lol) more weight than those who did not. That is a HUGE difference! It also showed that of those people taking the Probiotics there was a marked improvement in their calcium absorbtion which in turn helped to prevent bone loss later in life!! ADD PROBIOTICS to your daily routine people!! It is obviously worth the effort it takes to swallow one more little pill a day!

I'm going to have to get some of these. I wonder if you get the same effect from eating one of the yogurts that are out there with probiotics in it? I'm gonna have to do some hunting to see if I can find any info on the research project you heard about! Thanks for the info!

I don't think eating a yogurt would have quite the same effect because it is a much smaller dose of those "healthy bacteria". Kind of like the same reason we have to take calcium supplements.... you can't get enough by drinking a glass of milk. I bet if you did a google search for "Probiotics, Gastric Bypass" you would find the article.

So I will be getting some probiotics. Have you tried the bariatric advantage calcium chews? I have some lemon ones if you would like to try them.

You know... I haven't tried them! Mainly because I am trying to use up what I have first. If you wanted to be so kind as to send me a little sample though that would be awesome!! It is always hard to bring myself to spend the money on something new unless I know I like it first ;)

taking supplements can be expensive especially if you take many like me.I found an amazing website to buy good quality supplements for the best prices.they have thousands of natural products.its called iherb.com.in case you'll order use code KEB068 for 5 $ off on your first purchase.take a look you'll love it.For weight loss what I take and recommend beside probiotics its green tea extract supplements.

My Surgeon at Stanford did the study. I just ordered mine so I will have them for after my surgery 4/20/10. I have been enjoying watching your videos. Keep up the great work!

I'm like a probiotic addict! I take Jarrodophilus EPS, but I also used the Bariatric Advantage chewables (and they worked great!) I like that you can take the chewables without liquid, which we all know can be a problem sometimes! Did you notice that the bloating and gas left town after you started taking these? I swear by 'em ;-)

Seems everyones talking about these. And i already have issues so its prob. a good idea. Looks like Bariatric Advantage came out with a good tasting chewable of these. Have u tried them?

MY probiotic had 3 billion those bugs that we all need. It is by Solar Ray called Multidophilus.

I could take it three times a day. I just cannot take it within two hours of taking an antibiotic.

The experimental group also had higher B12 levels.

I read that article several weeks ago and have been taking them ever since. I found a nice chewable one at GNC. I cannot tell if it has helped my weight loss because I am having very little to start with....but it can't hurt.

Thanks for the video, I actually had a box of the pearls probiotic in the cabinet that I had only used 2 out of months ago. I will start taking them today and see how things go..thanks again and you look good by the way.
