Overview

Bifidobacterium breve BBr60 is a strain-specific **live biotherapeutic/probiotic microbial therapy** based on *Bifidobacterium breve*, studied as an oral intervention for obesity-related metabolic dysfunction and for general physiological and psychological health in adults. In the provided public sources, BBr60 was administered orally at **1 × 10^10 CFU/day** and evaluated in randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled human trials. In overweight or obese adults, the strain was reported to improve weight-related measures and fasting blood glucose and to modulate gut microbiota, serum and fecal metabolites, and metabolic pathways linked to lipid handling, amino acid metabolism, oxidative phosphorylation, and cholesterol metabolism. Its mechanism is not defined by a single human molecular target; rather, it appears to act through **microbiome modulation**, altered microbial metabolite production, and downstream effects on host metabolic and gut barrier physiology. The cited studies identify **Wecare Probiotics** as the product manufacturer/supplier, and the available evidence supports development primarily in **obesity/overweight-associated metabolic health**, with an additional investigator-initiated healthy-volunteer study examining gastrointestinal, metabolic, and mood-related endpoints.
