Results

Participants consumed a test beverage containing 1 * 10^10 colony-forming units of Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis GCL2505 per 100 g and 5.0 g of inulin per 100 g for 4 weeks. The resting energy expenditure of the GCL2505 and inulin group was significantly higher than that of the placebo group at weeks 2 and 4. The intervention significantly increased the total number of bifidobacteria.
