Effect of dietary dilution on food intake, weight gain, plasma glucose and insulin and adipose tissue insulin sensitivity in rat

摘要: Abstract 1. Food intake, growth and metabolic data are presented for three groups of rats fed 28 days on a control, high-carbohydrate diet or this diluted with 25 50 per cent cellulose. 2. Increased dietary dilution was associated an increased total food intake but reduced nutrient weight gain. 3. Animals cellulose had significantly lower plasma glucose insulin levels than control animals. 4. showed conversion to CO2 lipid by epididymal fat pads in vitro. This apparent both the presence absence insulin.
