Whole food ingredients in herbal plant have been found to process some significant effects in reduced risk and treatment of many diseases, but single ingredient isolated from such plants may induce opposite outcomes.
According to the University of Calgary study, dried peas fiber may have a profound and positive effect in induced and sustained weight loss in over weight and obese subjects.
Obesity is a medical condition characterized by excess body fat accumulated overtime.
Overweight is a condition of excess body weight relatively to the height.
According to the Body Mass Index(BMI), a BMI between 25 to 29.9 is considered over weight, while a BMI of over 30 is an indication of obesity.
Statistic shows, 68% of American population are either overweight or obese.
The article written by LOUISE LUCAS AND ALAN RAPPEPORT and posted on Financial Times, suggested, " Diet aids are often more successful at shedding dollars than pounds – for manufacturers as well as consumers and "The weight-management industry, worth $11-billion in retail sales according to data company Euromonitor, should by rights be a major beneficiary of the times".
However, how many people have followed through all those programs? How may people have maintained the weight reduction? The answers are debatable, depending to who you talk to.
One thing for sure, most weight programs are not working to their promises, for whatever reasons, otherwise the statistic should show a rate reduction of obesity in US, over the years.

Dried pea is a small but nutritionally mighty member of the legume family, genus Pisum belongings to the family Fabaceae with healthy source of proteins, fibers, vitamins and minerals.
In a double blind, placebo controlled, parallel group study, with overweight and obese (BMI = 25-38) adults randomized to either a 15 g/d yellow pea fibre supplemented group or isocaloric placebo group for 12 weeks (n = 30/group), researchers found that peas fiber displays a significant effect in weight reduction through various mechanisms, including improvement of metabolic syndrome and gut microbiota expression.

Metabolic syndrome is associated to weight gain due to its effects in increased odds of low HDL and high triglycerides relative in compared to participants with continuously stable weights(4).
According to the Université de la Méditerranée, gut microbiota expression is correlated to host weight. And microbial changes in the human gut were proposed to be one of the possible causes of obesity(5).

Dr. Jennifer E Lambert, the lead author said, " feeding the prebiotic fibre oligofructose for 12 weeks reduced levels of the orexigenic hormone ghrelin and increased levels of the anorexigenic hormone PYY in overweight adults which corresponded with lower self-reported energy intake [13]. In the long-term, these changes in postprandial peptide secretion may promote weight loss through reductions in ad libitum food intake", and "Both bacterial abundance and composition can be altered with lifestyle changes. Indeed, part of the role of intestinal bacteria in weight control has been elucidated through study of patients receiving bariatric surgery".
Additionally, in the examined the nutritional effects and acceptability of two high-fiber hypocaloric diets differing in sources of fiber: (a) beans or (b) fruits, vegetables, and whole grains of 2 men, 18 women, mean age = 46.9, and mean BMI = 30.6.with participants completed 3-day food diaries in each of the two baseline weeks, researchers indicated that
*. There are no difference in outcome of fiber intake of all groups. Both diets increased fiber intake from 16.6 in compared to baseline.
*. Fiber intake showed a consistent effect in reduced weight status over treatment in both groups with mean weight loss was 1.4 kg.
*. Returned questionnaire also addressed the hunger decreased and fullness increased during the testing period in both groups.
*. Both diets were rated as potentially acceptable as long as six months.
The findings evidences suggested that bean and fruits, vegetables, and whole grains fiber demonstrated a similar efficacy in increased satiation, and reduced hunger in induced weight loss.
.
Interestingly, in a total of 173 women and men, with a mean body mass index of approximately 36 kg m(-2) (one-fifth with diabetes type 2) randomised to a high-fibre bean-rich diet with fibre intakes of 35.5 (18.6) g day(-1) for women and 42.5 (30.3) g day(-1) for men, or a low-carbohydrate diet, researchers found that in 123 (71.1%) completers at 16 weeks
*. The mean (SD) weight loss of both groups was 4.1 (4.0) kg.
*, Fiber dietary group expresses a higher weight loss of 5.2 in compared to 4.5 kg in low-carbohydrate group.
3. High-fibre diet shows a better decreased low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol and total cholesterol levels in compared to low-carbohydrate diet.
Dr. Tonstad S, the led author said."After 52 weeks, the low-carbohydrate (n = 24) group tended to retain weight loss better than the high-fibre group (P = 0.06), although total cholesterol remained lower with the bean-rich diet (P = 0.049)."
Taking altogether, there is no doubt that fibers of bean or other sources as functional foods, may have strong implication in induced weight loos and weight management for over weight and obese subjects.
The amounts of fiber intake should be consulted with your doctors to prevent overdoses constipation.
