background: we studied the effects of high protein (hp) and balanced diets (bds) on lipid profiles, and high‑sensitive c‑reactive protein (hs‑crp) levels in obese and overweight women. methods: in a parallel designed randomized controlled clinical trial, 60 healthy women with body mass index ≥25 kg/m2, aged 20–46 years, enrolled in an 8‑week investigation at aerobic clubs. they were categorized...

background: coronary heart disease is one of the most important problems of public health. one risk factor is dyslipidemia. evidence from molecular and animal research and epidemiologic investigations indicate that calcium intake may influence lipid metabolism.but intervention studies have produced conflicting results.objective of this study was to determine the effects of calcium supplementati...

the aim of the study was to investigate the preventive effects of dietary garcinia cambogia extract onlipid metabolism and serum activities of alanine aminotransferase (alt), aspartate aminotransferase (ast)and gamma-glutamyle transferase (ggt) in rats fed high-lipid diet. thirty female, one-year-old sprague-dawley rats were used and separated into three equal groups. group 1 (control group) wa...

background: health status of offspring is programmed by maternal diet throughout gestation and lactation. the present study investigates the lasting effects of maternal supplementation with different amounts of soy oil or extra virgin olive oil (evoo) on weight and biochemical parameters during gestation and lactation of female mice offspring. methods: eight weeks old female c57bl/6 mice (n=40)...

objective(s):the aim of this study was to evaluate, for the first time, whether the effects of low-dose adropin administration is effective in rats with hyperlipidemia. materials and methods: twenty one wistar albino female rats were randomly divided into 3 groups and fed with high-fat diet for 4 weeks to establish the hyperlipidemia model. meanwhile, adropin was administrated intraperitonealy ...

l- carnitine has been recognized as a new and important dietary supplementation, essential for human and animal nutrition. this study was conducted to evaluate the use of dietary l- carnitine supplementation and its effects on the growth (body final weight, daily growth rate (dgr), feed efficiency (fe), feed conversion ratio (fcr), daily feed intake  (dfi), protein efficiency ratio (per), lipid...

A 60-day trial with six diets (three different protein levels × two different lipid levels) containing 30, 35 and 40% protein with 10 and 15% lipid levels was conducted to determine the optimum dietary protein to lipid ratio and effects on growth performance and hematological indices of Aspikutum, Leuciscus aspius female×Rutilus frisii male. Two hundred and fifty two fish (31.2±0.4 g; mean±SEM)...

Ectopic lipid accumulation has been observed in fish fed a high-lipid diet. However, no information is available on the mechanism by which dietary lipid levels comprehensively regulate lipid transport, uptake, synthesis and catabolism in fish. Therefore, the present study aimed to gain further insight into how dietary lipids affect lipid deposition in the liver of large yellow croaker(Larimicht...
