Abstract

|
|
Objectives: This study analyzed literature published in Korea using Tae-eumin prescriptions and herbs for obesity for future research.
Methods: We conducted a computerized search at journal web sites and manual searches. A total of 25 sites were included. Obesity, obese, over weight, herb, herbal, taeum, taeyuem, and taeeum were selected keywords and they were combined properly.
Results: A total of 28 studies were analyzed. The percentage of clinical and case report studies was 35.7% and experimental studies 64.3%. The most frequently used prescription was Taeeumjowui-tang (太陰調胃湯) and herbs were Raphani semen(蘿?子) and Platycodon grandiflorum(桔梗). Weight (kg), body mass index (BMI) and side effects and symptoms were used as indices in clinical and case report studies. Weight, weight gain percentage and blood serum lipid profiles were frequently used as indices in experimental studies.
Conclusion: Further well-designed randomized controlled studies and clinical reports of side effects and symptoms are needed for development of obesity studies for Tae-eumin prescriptions.
