Abstract(s)
Obesity is an emerging health problem worldwide.
Hypercaloric or hyperlipidemic diets have been used
as models of obesity induction in laboratory animals. Obesity
can be influenced by regular consumption of natural bioactive
compounds. Mushrooms, such as Ganoderma lucidum
(GL), have been used in the human diet since ancient times
and include a wide variety of biomolecules with medicinal
properties. The main objective of this work was to study the
effects of G. lucidum in an animal model of obesity.
