Disclosed is a composition and method for controlling weight gain and/or inducing weight loss in an individual, particularly a human being, in need of such weight loss. The method employs a composition containing one or more isoflavones, such as phytoestrogens, and results in a decrease of appetite, a feeling of fullness upon consumption of lesser amounts of food, and a concomitant loss of weight. The method further avoids the disadvantages associated with stimulant weight-loss drugs, such as caffeine and amphetamine. |
