Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The main purpose of this study is to verify the effects of Weizmania Coagulans BC99 on the gut microbiota and fat related markers (TG, TC, HDL, LDL) in overweight adult subjects.

The subjects participate were randomly grouped and receive intervention with Weizmann clotting bacteria BC99 or placebo. The total duration of the study is 8 weeks. After the intervention, blood, urine, and feces samples of the subjects need to be collected and promptly tested in the laboratory. During the intervention period, each group of subjects was required to take the corresponding product daily and record complications.

Detailed Description

The main purpose of this study is to verify the effects of Weizmania Coagulans BC99 on the gut microbiota and fat related markers (TG, TC, HDL, LDL) in overweight adult subjects.

The subjects participate in the screening on a voluntary basis, and those who pass the screening will enter the trial. Randomly group and receive intervention with Weizmann clotting bacteria BC99 or placebo. The total duration of the study is 8 weeks, including 1 week before the trial (followed up once), 4 weeks during the trial (followed up once a week), and 8 weeks during the trial (followed up once a week). After the intervention, blood, urine, and feces samples of the subjects need to be collected and promptly tested in the laboratory. During the intervention period, each group of subjects was required to take the corresponding product daily and record complications.
