The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential use of a commercially available “floral for weight loss”, by reducing impulsiveness and binge eating in a group of obese patients. 28 patients were recruited to this prospective, randomized double blind study. They received standardized food plan with 1500 kcal with a replacement list, collected anthropometric data (weight, height, BMI), applied the test for binge eating - Binge Eating Scale (BES), with cutting score ≥17 points to binge eating disorder. They were randomized into 3 groups: a double blind group (floral or placebo) and two tests groups - control (floral and water) receiving respectively "Floral for weight loss" (floral group, n = 7) and vehicle (placebo Group, n = 7); and "Floral for weight loss" (floral test group, n = 7) and water (water control group, n = 7). All groups were treated for 60 days, were excluded patients under 18 years or using drugs to lose weight or to control mood or anxiety. Anthropometric data and BES were repeated at the end of the study. There was significant weight reduction in placebo group (initial weight 94.2 kg ± 9.29 vs final weight 91.2 kg ± 8.9 p = 0.025), but not in the other groups: floral-double-blind (88.1 kg ± 8.3 ± 8.1 vs 87.7 kg, s), floral test (97.4 kg vs. 95.7 kg ± 18.5 ± 95.7 ± 17.7 kg) and water control (85.2 kg ± 7.6 vs 84.3 ± 84.3 kg ± 7.8 kg, ns). The data suggest no association between floral commercially available for weight loss (double-blind / controls) and slimming, although they have not been detected behaviors of binge eating by this instrument.
