Abstract:
To explore the effects of dietary conjugated linoleic acid(CLA) on body fat accumulation in male Wistar rats. The obese rat model was established by feeding high lipid forage. The rats were fed a semi-purified diet containing 0.5,1.0,3.0g?kg -1 CLA for 36 days. Low dose group, middle dose group and high dose group all could remarkably reduce the gain of body weight. Low dose group could reduce the body adipose, middle and high dose group could remarkably decrease the body adipose. There were significant differences in the fat and protein contents in the rats thigh between the control group and the group fed high dose CLA. These results suggested that CLA can reduce the body fat in obese Wistar rats.
