Brief summary
This study aims to investigate the effects of Bifidobacterium breve BBr60 on key health indicators in overweight and obese adults. Specifically, it will assess the probiotic's impact on body composition metrics such as BMI, body fat percentage, WHR, and BMR. The inclusion criteria for participants are a BMI of ≥28 kg/m\^2, targeting individuals who stand to benefit significantly from metabolic and body composition improvements.
Interventions
DIETARY_SUPPLEMENTProbiotic
Through oral probiotic intervention for 12 weeks, participants' BMI, body fat percentage, and waist-to-hip ratio will be measured at weeks 0, 6, and 12, and fecal samples will be collected at weeks 0 and 12 for gut microbiota analysis.

Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Effect on body mass index (BMI) values. | 12 weeks | After the probiotic intervention, the change in body mass index (BMI) from baseline in obese/overweight individuals will be calculated. BMI is measured by dividing a person's weight in kilograms by the square of their height in meters (kg/m\^2). |
