This study focuses on overweight and obese individuals who are following a healthy lifestyle, which includes a calorie-reduced diet and an increase in daily activity. The main goal is to evaluate the effect of a specific probiotic, Bifidobacterium Animalis Ssp. Lactis 420 (B420), on body fat mass. The importance of this study lies in understanding if this probiotic could enhance the benefits of a healthy lifestyle, potentially offering a new approach to weight management. Participants in this study are randomly assigned to either receive the B420 probiotic or a placebo, neither the participants nor the researchers know who is receiving what, ensuring unbiased results. Over a period of 6 months, participants will incorporate the probiotic or placebo into their daily routine. The study measures the change in total body fat mass from the beginning to the end of the study. The primary outcome is the difference in this change between the group receiving the probiotic and the group receiving the placebo.
