.... After VLCD the body weight and body mass index significantly declined (p < 0.01); whereas abdominal adipose tissue and visceral abdominal tissue (VAT) significantly decreased (p < 0.01), modifcations of subcutaneus abdominal tissue (SAT) were not significant.

...Akmal Khan; A.E. Bender Adult rats that maintained nitrogen balance on a diet containing 5% casein fed ad libitum were restricted to 70% of their normal food intake for 31 days. This resulted in a negative N balance, loss of body weight and increased activities of hepatic glutamic pyruvic...

... was observed, i.e. an increase in body fat without any change in body weight. This indicates that the CNS centres for the regulation of body weight and body fat are probably not the same. It is suggested that MSG obesity will be a suitable model for comparative studies of body weight and the regulation of fat...

On the overall average, the digestibility of gadoleic acid varied between 86.8 (Canbra oil) and 90.0% (regular rapeseed oil) and of erucic acid between 84.4 (Canbra oil) and 89.9% (Span oil). Feeding regular rapeseed oil to chickens led to a decrease in body weight with increasing...
