“…While the standard treatments for obesity largely through lifestyle, pharmacological, and surgical interventions are suggested in many national and international guidelines, increasing evidence has reported the anti-obesity effects of traditional medicines and their great potentials in weight loss.

However, conflicting opinions still exist due to the lack of sufficient evidence to support the efficacy and safety of TCM for the treatment of overweight and obesity.…”
