The Weight Loss Connection The findings of a new study, conducted by Dr. Jeffrey Gordon and his colleagues, were released last month and has had some major implications on the weight loss industry. The study has found that healthy gut bacteria may be the key to maintaining a healthy weight. In a nutshell, rats were fed the gut bacteria from healthy slim people as well as from obese individuals. The rats that were fed the gut bacteria from the slim people stayed slim and the rats who were fed the gut bacteria from the obese participants became obese and underwent some significant unhealthy metabolic changes. We have all heard the benefits of probiotics and maintaining healthy gut bacteria, and it seems this study may truly support the reasons why it is so important that we ingest our yogurts and other fermented food items. To follow up with this study, I am looking for 10 participants on a volunteer basis who are looking to possibly lose a few pounds by undergoing a very simple 3 week challenge. It does not involve making any dietary or lifestyle changes, just a few simple additions. Please email me at kirstenjanzrhn@hotmail if you are interested in participating. Thank you!
