| Disease | 28 OBESE WOMEN WERE DIVIDED INTO 2 GROUPS AND GIVEN MUCILAGE TWICE DAILY IN CONJUNCTION WITH AN 800-CALORIE HYPOGLUCIDIC DIET, OR DIET ONLY, IN A CROSSOVER DESIGN. WEIGHT LOSS WAS SIMILAR FOR BOTH GROUPS IN THE FIRST PERIOD. IN THE SECOND PERIOD, THE GROUP GIVEN MUCILAGE LOST MORE WEIGHT THAN THE DIET-ONLY GROUP. AUTHORS INTERPRET THIS TO INDICATE THAT THE WEIGHT-REDUCING EFFECT OF MUCILAGE ONLY BECOMES IMPORTANT AS COMPLIANCE WITH THE DIET DECREASES DUE TO TIME. |
