Abstract

Obesity and weight management are two words that generate controversy in academe, and food and healthcare practice. Although, healthcare practitioners employ lifestyle modification, bariatric surgery and pharmacotherapy as primary weight management programs, these methods may have exacerbating challenges. In many societies around the globe, there appears to be an increase in the use of herbal products in weight management. Tea preparations (infusions, decoctions) are arguably the most prevalent form of administering herbal extracts. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers herbal plants and its supplements foods, not drugs. These foods may provide the much needed alternative resource, and may have biologic benefit in weight management therapy; herbalism may enjoy expanding acceptability and utility by the food and healthcare industry if properly validated, standardized and regulated.

Key words: Obesity; Weight management; CAM; Herbalism; Biologic; Antihyperlipidemic; Functional Foods.
