Abstract:
Present study was aimed to scrutinize the antiobesity activity of Bryophyllum pinnatum (Lam) Oken leaves aqueous extract (AEBP) in the cafeteria diet-induced obesity in rats. Female Wistar rats weighing between 100-150 g were allocated in five groups (n=6) i.e. normal control, obesity control, standard drug (Orlistat) treated group, test drug (200 mg/kg and 400 mg/kg AEBP) treated groups. The result revealed that B. pinnatum leaves prevented the increase in BMI, food intake, body weight, glucose, triglycerides and cholesterol level without affecting water intake. This study provides evidence for the antiobesity activity of Bryophyllum pinnatum (Lam) Oken leaves.
