Default Bacteria and obesity?

Have you seen this recent news story about intestinal bacteria?

It says that obese people have more "Firmicute" type of bacteria in their
gut and from what I've read it seems these are the very types that are used
in yogurt and fermented foods.

Is this correct? (not the theory -- but are yogurt cultures "firmicute"?)

Anyone?
