In this study, to evaluate the anti-obesity effects of mulberry leaf tea and its fermented product by Monascus pilosus , we investigated body and organ weight, blood and liver biomarkers in mice fed 1% tea infusionsinstead of water for 8 weeks. Mice were divided into three groups such as a normal control (NC), unfermented mulberry leaf tea infusion (UMI) and fermented mulberry leaf tea infusion (FMI). Although it is not significant, teainfusion groups showed reduction of body weight gains compared with NC group. Moreover, contents of LDL-cholesterol and lipid peroxide (LPO), altherogenic index, and xanthin oxidase (XO) activity were significantlydecreased, and glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity was significantly elevated. The results from this study suggested that UMI and FMI may have an anti-obesity activity, upregulate antioxidant enzymes and reduce levelsof oxidants related to liver damage.
