Abstract:
The vitamin-mineral enriched flour (VMF) was a byproduct obtained from a new processing technique of flour milling, and rich in vitamin B group, minerals and dietary fibers.The addition of 10 or 20% VMF to the stock diet composed mainly of white flour failed to improve PER and growth rate of young rats. When the rats were fed the tested diet for 6 weeks, in which the VMF served as the only diet source ot riboflavin, blood glutathione reductase activity coefficient was 1.13 and 1.09 respectively. This indicated that the amount of riboflavin supplied by VMF could maintain an adequate level in the body of the rats.Adult rats were fed high cholesterol plus 10, 20 and 30% VMF, the contents of serum cholesterol, liver lipids and liver cholesterol were similar to those of the normal diet group, these contents, however, in control group were increased obviously. The results suggested that VMF could protect the rats from the increment of serum cholesterol, liver lipids and cholesterol.
