Probiotics?

Has anyone heard that probiotics can aid in weight loss? I was thinking of taking them just to keep my immune system healthy for my little man and myself but when I was researching them, I was coming across a lot of articles about using them for possible weight loss. Has anyone tried them?

I have heard mixed things about taking probiotics as a diuretic. If you want to take them to strengthen or keep a healthy immune system and the result is weight loss, then that's a plus for you! I have always been the firm believer of hard work, proper diet and exercise for the ultimate permanent weight loss and never saught out pills or other loose weight quick gimmicks. I say if you want to try it then go for it!0

I've never used them. Our pedi has them give them to our kids when they have stomach bugs though.0

I have used them for a week now and I'm feeling good! I'm not using them to try and lose weight but I definitely feel less bloated all the time and that's what I was looking for. Plus, (sorry for TMI) they have made me "regular" again! Ever since I had my son 5 1/2 months ago I have been so bloated and irregular.0
