Beneficial Effect of Hydrolysed Glucose-cycloacetoacetate on Carbohydrate Metabolism in High Saturated Fat Fed Animals

Disturbances in carbohydrate metabolism caused by feeding high fat diet in animals are well known. Whitney and Roberts, and Samuel et al reported that rats maintained on a high fat diet generally have higher blood sugar levels than those on a high carbohydrate diet. Increased fasting glucose levels in men placed on a high fat diet have also been reported. Kowale et al have evidenced more deleterious effects on carbohydrate metabolism by feeding high saturated fat than high unsaturated fat to animals.
