weight loss/トウモロコシ

BACKGROUND The replacement of sucrose with HFCS in food products has been suggested as playing a role in the development of obesity as a public health issue. The objective of this study was to examine the effects of four equally hypocaloric diets containing different levels of sucrose or high

Effects of restricted tube-feeding (25% of energy requirements) of protein, lipid, or carbohydrates on body weight loss; hematologic and clinical chemical variables; plasma lipid and amino acid concentrations; nitrogen balance; and hepatic histologic features and lipid concentrations were compared

OBJECTIVE To examine effects of dietary protein quality (casein [CA] vs corn gluten [CG]) and dietary lipids (corn oil [CO] vs oil blend [OB] rich in long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids [LCPUFAs]) on fatty acid composition in liver and adipose tissue after weight loss in overweight

OBJECTIVE To determine effects of dietary lipid and protein on plasma lipoprotein and free fatty acid concentrations and hepatic fatty acid synthesis during weight gain and rapid weight loss in cats. METHODS 24 ovariohysterectomized cats. METHODS Cats were fed a high energy diet until they gained

Sympathomimetics are effective, centrally acting drugs that induce weight loss through their potent anorexic and locomotor properties. We reported that sympathomimetics antagonize catecholamine-dependent, alpha-2 adrenergic receptor-dependent signal transduction mediated by chloride/bicarbonate

The fatty acid compositions of abdominal and gluteal subcutaneous adipose tissues of eight obese subjects were measured after an initial 5-10-wk period of weight maintenance on a liquid-formula diet (40% of calories as corn oil, 45% as carbohydrate, and 15% as protein), after a 10% increase in

The effects of fat content in the hypocaloric diet on whole body glucose oxidation and adipocyte glucose transport were investigated in two animal-feeding experiments. Diet-induced obese rats were food restricted to 75% of their previous energy intakes with either a high (45% by calorie) or a low

Cross-sectional studies in both humans and animals have demonstrated associations between obesity and altered reward functions at the behavioral and neural level, but it is unclear whether these alterations are cause or consequence of the obese state. Reward behaviors were quantified in male,

We examined the effect of restriction of foods with high fructose content in obese school children. In a clinical study, we selected 54 obese children 6 to 11 years old with high fructose consumption (>70 g/day) in order indicate dietary fructose restriction (<20 g/day) for 6 weeks. Anthropometry,

In an earlier study, we showed that feeding CLA immediately after weaning prolonged survival of NZB/W F1 mice after onset of proteinuria. In the present study, the feeding of CLA was delayed until mice had developed proteinuria. Thirty NZB/W F1 mice were fed a regular rodent chow after weaning.

Seedling length, CO(2) output, dry weight and energy content of the seeds and seedling organs of Triticum, Zea, Helianthus and Phaseolus were determined in order to study the efficiency of storage substance utilization and energy turnover during seedling development up to 108 h. The respiration rate

In this study, an improved facile cellulose dissolution with low chemical concentration process was used for preparing corn stalk pith regenerated cellulose (RC) films. The conventional method usually requires 68% zinc chloride solution for cellulose dissolution. The objective of this study is

Prior studies of medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) suggest that MCT might be a useful tool for body fat mass management in obese nondiabetic humans. We now report a pilot study that tests if MCT is beneficial for moderately overweight subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The study was conducted in

Perfluorodecanoic acid (PFDA) is a representative of the perfluorinated carboxylic acids used as commercial wetting agents and flame retardants. Signs of PFDA toxicity have been reported to resemble those seen after exposure to TCDD. To determine if PFDA exhibits teratogenic effects similar to those
