The present invention provides a food intake suppressant and an anti-obesity agent containing the compounds represented by formula (I''). (In the formula, at least one of R 11 , R 12 , R 13 , R 14 and R 15 is a G-O- group (where G represents a sugar moiety), while the others represent, independently, a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, C 1-6 alkyl, C 1-6 alkoxy, C 1-6 alkyl-carbonyloxy, or a G-O- group; X 1 represents a single bond, or a methylene group, an ethylene group, a trimethylene group, or a vinylene group; X 2 represents -CO-O-, or -O-CO-; p and q each represent an integer from 0 to 7 so as to satisfy a relationship of p + q = 2 to 8; Y 1 represents a methylene group, an ethylene group, or an alkenyl group with 2 to 15 carbons containing 1 to 3 double bonds (where the double bonds may be either cis or trans isomers); and R 16 and R 17 represent, independently, a hydrogen atom, a methyl group, or an ethyl group.) |
