A probiotic that can help you stay fit? It’s true! Lactobacillus Gasseri is a unique strain of probiotic with activity that sets it apart from all other strains. Like many other probiotics, Lactobacillus Gasseri is a lactic acid-producing bacterium, which makes it helpful in supporting healthy digestive function, as lactic acid provides valuable protection for the lining of the stomach and intestinal mucosa. But the health-promoting effects of this versatile microscopic ally go far beyond supporting digestion, and many people find it a valuable addition to a healthy diet and exercise program for the purpose of maintaining good physical condition and weight management.

Lactobacillus Gasseri has earned a reputation as the “fitness probiotic” because it helps the body support leptin, a hormone that plays a key role in energy metabolism and fat storage. Leptin is often called the “satiety hormone” because it helps control feelings of hunger and fullness, acting as a brake on appetite while increasing metabolism. Leptin levels in the body typically drop during weight loss, slowing metabolism to conserve energy, which is one reason why so many people struggle to maintain their fitness gains over the long term—the infamous “yo-yo effect.”

Swanson Probiotics Lactobacillus Gasseri delivers 3 billion live organisms in acid-resistant, vegan capsules that enable them to reach the lower digestive tract unchanged for optimal results.

* The product is a vegetarian capsule - either DRcaps™ or EMBO Caps® AP - depending on the batch number as stated on the actual product label.
