I don't think I'd rush into anything. I've read several articles about this recently, and they don't say that taking the bacteria will help your weight. There don't seem to be any published studies having proven that yet. What they seem to be saying is that losing weight appears to contribute to naturally producing normal amounts of it.
When I read the article, I thought OMG, how many supplement companies are going to jump on this and stretch it into a sales pitch for something we don't know anything about yet
The whole thing is in a very "iffy" stage. I'd suggest we wait a while and see what the published studies say.
