interesting topic. But how do you know you are not infected by H. pylori when you are 77kg? H. pylori infection can remain asymptomatic for years or decades.
Nobody knows how H. pylori interact with other bacteria in the intestine and colon. I suspect it does indirectly affect the weight gain/loss. However, the mechanism is unknown.
