Scientific Study – Hibiscus and Weight Loss
In 2014, the Food & Function Journal shared the results of a human clinical study that recruited obese participants between the ages of 18 to 65. This twelve-week study was conducted at Chung Shan Medical University Hospital in Taiwan.
Half of the study participants were given two 450 mg tablets of hibiscus extract three times daily while the other half were given two sugar tablets three times daily. Before and after the study certain parameters were analyzed including body fat percentage, waist circumference, serum lipase, blood glucose, and waist-to-hip ratio.
After analyzing the post-study parameters, researchers discovered that the participants who took the hibiscus extract had reduced their waist circumference, body fat percentage, and waste-to-hip ratio during the course of the study. Although weight loss was moderate, the results were encouraging.
