Weight Loss depends on various factors related to Food Habits, Metabolism, fat burning, Physical activities and the Adaptability of that particular person’s body for stress caused by the weight loss. These factors makes the consistency in weight reduction leading to quick progression for the target weight or BMI.
In terms of Digestion the gut health plays a major role in actively breaking down the foods one consume. So the good bacterial organisms in our stomach is an absolute necessary for making gradual healthy progression in regaining our health and also in weight loss.
Probiotics are the gut flora of bacterial growth that aids effective digestion. Human bodies have millions of strands of such f good bacteria from the birth. Harmful foods, Anti-biotic medicines (as the name suggests, it is a villain for biotic environment) and Alcohol consumption will very much reduce the good bacterial growth in our bodies. Some food types can actually boost the good bacterial growth in our digestive system enabling healthy digestion and absorbing nutrients from the food we consume.
Probiotics and Weight Loss
Bacterial cultivation was one of the key methods in Indian cooking and food style which is very evident in terms of converting milk into curd, butter, ghee and other milk derivatives as well. All kind of vegetable pickles have cultured bacteria in them and when consumed in moderation it will lead to proper gut health.
Curd and Yoghurt are the two derivatives of milk that needs the bacterial cultivation and so the strands of such micro-organisms are already pre-digested in the environment itself, making it easy for digesting in our gut system.
These Probiotic processes will help in proper digestion and also eliminates the bad or excess micro-organisms in the body. This in turn helps in weight loss by entering the body’s efficiency in burning fat instead of consuming glucose always for the energy. This is the primary reason why Butter and Yoghurt plays a key role in Ketogenic Diet (Burning Fat as fuel instead of food glucose) models.
Curd
A small amount of curd is added to the boiled milk in the lukewarm temperature. Lactobacillus bacteria in the curd will multiply after it is spread all over the milk components. The fermentation process takes place and the breakdown of the food by the micro-organism will lead to the formation of Curd totally. Curd is also good for those who have lactose intolerance and have a rich source of Calcium and good Fat.
Yoghurt
The preparation of Yoghurt is very similar to the Curd formation of Bacterial cultivation. Streptococcus thermophiles strands are the extra micro-organism strands added in the preparation of Yoghurt. Suck kinds of two strands of bacterial growth will directly impact the intestinal lines to grow more good strands of micro cultivation that aids in effective metabolism and fat burning capability of our bodies.
Probiotic Yoghurt
According to a study conducted in University of Tennessee at Knoxville both the curd and Yoghurt have sufficient probiotics for proper gut health and maintaining efficient bacterial growth. But the study reveals the fact strands of bacterial culturere necessary for fat loss will be present only in the probiotic yoghurt. In the Probiotic yoghurt the live culture of bacteria is very much abundant and so the impact of weight loss aid is more effective when consumed in moderation.
Gut Bacteria Vs Fat Burn
Though the probiotics serve the purpose of healthy metabolism that results in gradual weight loss, the only way in which the body can enter into the state of burning fat is by adapting for an active lifestyle and consumption of healthy fats reducing the overall carbohydrate intake. Probiotics will only help in the process and not the solution for weight loss itself.
