Clinical trials have documented that consuming LACTOGG®’s probiotic strain promotes weight gain both in premature infants and in normally born infants. It also promotes the nutritional status of children with prolonged illness. 
Lactobacillus GG (L. GG) enhances weight gain in extremely low birth weight infants. [Al-Hosni et al.2011]
Change in weight, length and head size in children supplemented with Lactobacillus GG (L. GG) over 6 months. [Vendt et al. 2006]
Children who have long term illnesses do not grow well. In a clinical trial involving a group of children with longstanding lung infections, growth was promoted when the children were supplemented with GG probiotic. 
Change in weight in children with long term illness after supplemented with Lactobacillus GG (L. GG). [Bruzzeze et al. 2007]
