Swanson Lactobacillus Gasseri is a dietary supplement containing 3 billion CFU of Lactobacillus Gasseri probiotic bacteria per capsule.
Lactobacillus Gasseri - A strain of lactic acid bacteria with probiotic properties from the Lactobacillus family. Due to its unique effect on the human body, it is known as a "fitness probiotic" that supports fat reduction regardless of other factors. Due to its ability to produce lactic acid, it has a beneficial effect on intestinal function and the condition of mucous membranes.
Fitness Probiotic
This name has attached itself to the Lactobacillus Gasseri bacteria because of its well-documented fat-reduction-promoting effects in scientific studies. In one trial, test subjects were divided into three groups receiving a serving of yogurt: 1 billion CFU of L. Gasseri per gram of yogurt, 10 billion CFU of the same bacteria, and a control group receiving plain yogurt. The study included subjects with an elevated BMI body mass index. During follow-up measurements after the 3-month trial, there was an 8% loss of visceral fat in the groups using the probiotic! It is worth mentioning that the introduction of the probiotic was the only intervention, the subjects did not change their diet or activity. At the same time, the effects of the low-dose and high-dose groups were almost identical, suggesting that supplementation with large amounts of probiotic is not required.
Effects on leptin and inflammatory processes
In obese mice, the effects of a supply of L. Gasseri during a high-fat diet. After a 12-week trial, analysis of the number of macrophages in adipose tissue revealed a significant decrease in the probiotic group compared to the control group. In addition, it was noted that the probiotic also caused an improvement in the ratio of activated M1 inflammatory macrophages to their total number. Another interesting phenomenon is the down-regulation of the expression of genes encoding the synthesis of inflammatory factors, such as IL-6 and TNF-alpha. As if that wasn't enough, fasting glucose levels were also improved by the probiotic. These data point to an anti-inflammatory effect, which may translate into more efficient fat reduction and achieving overall health benefits.
L. Gasseri may also have an effect on improving leptin sensitivity. Leptin is a hormone produced by adipose tissue that, when it reaches the brain, transmits a signal about satiety and that we can stop eating because we are already adequately nourished. In addition to managing the sensation of satiety or lack thereof, it also significantly affects the rate of metabolism. Improved sensitivity to this hormone can result in easier diet control and much more efficient fat burning.
Universal application
By supporting metabolism independently of other factors, this strain can be used during any training period. So not only will it be a great addition to a diet and training aimed at fat reduction, but it can also slow down fat gain during a period of building muscle mass, when calorie intake is definitely higher. It can also be used for people who do not train at all, such as the elderly or during rehabilitation after a serious injury or accident, to reduce the detrimental effects of little exercise on body composition.
Supporting the work of the digestive system
L. Gasseri, as they are lactic bacteria have the ability to produce lactic acid as a result of the fermentation process of carbohydrates. And it is this lactic acid that shows regenerative properties for the mucosa lining the surface of the intestines, the condition of which is of great importance for the tightness of the intestinal barrier and protection of the body from the penetration of harmful agents into the bloodstream. A better state of the mucosa also means more efficient gastrointestinal motility and more efficient digestion of food. Lactic acid can also lower the pH in the large intestine, allowing it to fight pathogenic bacteria more efficiently.
DRcaps® technology
The specially designed capsules in which Swanson has placed its supplement are designed to protect the bacteria from potentially harmful factors they may encounter on their way to the large intestine, where they are yet to show their effects. DRcaps® capsules are resistant to stomach acid, which is deadly to many bacteria. By using this technology, the bacteria are only released at the end of their journey, during which they can safely wait inside the capsule protecting them from any threats.
Swanson Lactobacillus Gasseriis recommended for people who want to improve their body shape at a low cost and support fat reduction without compromising their health, and even enjoying health benefits. It shows beneficial effects completely independent of other factors, such as energy supply or physical activity. It can therefore be used in any situation. It will work well for both weight-reducing athletes, for those building muscle mass to slow fat gain, and for non-sports people, such as the elderly, so as not to bring their bodies to a level of fatness that could endanger health.
