Answers:
The probiotics themselves don't cause weight gain. However, if your digestive system is healing it is normal for you to be hungrier as you get healthier. As long as you are careful about what you eat your system should even out and you should reach a stable weight.

Keep in touch with your doctor and let him know how you are doing.Health Question & Answer

Probiotics can cause you to balloon. That is NOT fat gain, it is mostly gas retained. Perhaps a little water weight gain in there.

It depends the matter that you're cleaning out and the reaction the probiotics have.

I've never felt hungrier on probiotics, nor ever heard of it. I've gotten sicker on them (Herxeimer's reaction due to candida die off)

Hope this helps!Health Question & Answer
