Overweight and obesity can lead to the occurrence of many chronic diseases. In addition to the body mass value (BMI), the excess body fat can also be used as criteria for assessing obesity. Citrus peels are rich in many substances including limonene, Nobiletin, 3-methoxynobiletin, and flavonoids. They could be used for lowering blood pressure and reducing blood pressure, anti-anxiety and sleep aid and etc. Fermentation technology is used to ferment the peel to increase the content of neutral components in citrus peel. Therefore, I want to evaluate whether the fermented orange peel enzyme has the effect of reducing fat.
