RESUMO

Background and Aim: The pomegranate fruit peel has been suggested in traditional medicine as an anti-obesity compound. Therefore, the study was carried out to evaluate the effects of aqueous or ethanolic extracts of pomegranate fruit peel on obesity and lipid profile in rat


Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, 24 Wistar male rats randomly divided into 4 equal groups [2 experimentals and 2 controls]. The experimental groups A and E treated with aqueous or ethanolic extract of pomegranate peel at dose of 400 mg/kg, respectively, for 35 days. The control groups N and X respectively received 5mg/kg of saline and Xenical during the study as same as the experimental groups. The rats' weight, body mass index [BMI] and waist circumference were determined before and after investigation. Also at the end of study plasma lipid profile were measured. All data were analyzed by Prism software [ver- 3] and using paired samples t-test and ANOVA


Results: Comparison of weight change before and after the intervention showed a significant reduction in the Group E and a significant increase in group N [p

Conclusion: The ethanolic extract of pomegranate fruit peel can be considered as an anti-obesity compound in further studies
