This book analyzes the chemical and toxicological composition of some medicinal plants that are popularly used to treat obesity and a herbal medicine made from a combination of these plants. The book is based on a need to find new options for the treatment of obesity, since the alternatives currently available are ineffective and cause many side effects. The study of medicinal plants is justified because they are rich sources of bioactive compounds with potential for therapeutic use, and could be a viable alternative for the development of effective and safe drugs to help treat obesity.
