Metabolic changes during treatment with valproate in humans: Implication for untoward weight gain☆

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that a possible VPA-induced deficiency of the beta-oxidation of fatty acids is important for the development of obesity in epileptic patients in long-term treatment with VPA, but changes in catecholamines or other hormones might also be of importance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Food intake is inhibited by oral oleoylethanolamide.

TL;DR: It is shown that oral OEA inhibits food intake dose dependently at 90 min after food presentation to starved rats, which reveals unexpected properties of orally administered OEA, which may have potential as a cheap and safe antiobesity drug.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is suggested that alginate supplementation as an adjunct to energy restriction may improve weight loss in obese subjects who complete a 12-wk dietary intervention.
Journal ArticleDOI
