Dietary protein modulates effect of CLA on lipid metabolism in rats
May 31st, 2004
Dietary protein modulates the effect of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on lipid metabolism in rats. According to published research from Japan, "The effect of the interaction of CLA and type of dietary protein on lipid metabolism was studied in male rats by feeding diets containing casein (CAS) or soy protein (SOY) as dietary protein and either linoleic acid (LA, a control FA) or graded levels of CLA at 0, 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0% for 28 days. CLA reduced the weight of perirenal adipose tissue in a dose-dependent manner, but the magnitude of the reduction was greater when rats were fed SOY. "Feeding SOY resulted in a significant reduction of the...
