The effect of exercise and fish oil supplements on the blood lipid levels of the hamster
… exercise and fish oil supplements on plasma lipid parameters was investigated in the hamster. The hamsters were fed a basal hypercholesterolemic purified diet (0.1% cholesterol, 15% fat) to elicit an elevated lipid response. Fifty-six hypercholesterolemic hamsters were divided into four …

Effect of resistant starch consumption on body weight and blood lipid profiles
Dyslipidemia is characterized by an abnormal amount of lipids in the blood and can be improved through lowered body weight. In this study, we hypothesized that resistant starch prepared from high amylose corn (HAM-RS2), would improve plasma lipid profile, and decrease body weight in …

Hyperlipoproteinemic persons: Relationship between locus of control, health value, protective health behaviors, and illness/injury experiences
The Lipid Research Clinic Trials demonstrated conclusively that persons with elevated serum lipid levels were at a greater risk of developing a myocardial infarction. Methods of decreasing lipid levels include: dietary alterations, weight reduction, smoking cessation, normotensive blood pressure, …

Biological Activity of Phenolics in Chicks and Rats
… cane molasses all had increased cytochrome P-450 levels over control-fed birds. Chicks fed 6% indulin, with or without nebacitin (bacitracin:neomycin sulfate, 2:1) had higher cytochrome P-450 levels than did chicks fed 0% fiber diets, with or without nebacitin. Rats fed 6% indulin exhibited no …
