Urinary ascorbic acid excretion and sugar consumption as indices of enzyme induction and hypoglycemia in recovering alcoholic rats
… divided into 4 groups. Groups 1 and 3 were fed a liquid diet containing 35.5 percent energy as alcohol; groups 2 and 4 were fed a control diet with dextrins substituted for alcohol, all for 24 days. Group 4 was pair-fed to group 3. For the next 10 days, all rats were provided with sucrose and …

The effects of a hypocaloric diet, with varying protein/carbohydrate ratios, on the nitrogen balance of male weightlifters
… was to examine the effects of a hypocaloric liquid diet, with varied protein/carbohydrate ratios, on two groups of male weightlifters. A maintenance diet was consumed by all subjects for one week prior to the experimental phase, and all subjects participated in a resistance weight training …

The effects of oral arginine supplementation on growth hormone, arginine, and somatomedin levels during energy restriction in male weight lifters
… Following a week of controlled exercise and diet, fasted subjects took either an acute dose of arginine hydrochloride or casein (placebo), at 0.1 g/kg BW. Blood samples were drawn every 15 min, for 90 min after ingestion. All samples were analyzed for hGH and Arg, and IGF-1 was measured in …

Neuronal and Molecular Adaptations of GABA Neurons in the Ventral Tegmental Area to Chronic Alcohol
… week period of continuous ethanol exposure via liquid diet. Although some animals showed tolerance, there was no significant tolerance to ethanol inhibition of GJ-mediated electrical coupling. In addition, we were able to characterize differences in mRNA expression levels for the DA synthesizing …

Sex differences in diet-induced regulation of non-exercise activity thermogenesis in overweight and obese adults
… have been proposed as factors that may hinder diet-induced body mass loss. Although diet-mediated changes in PAEE and BMR are subject to large inter-individual variability, research investigating the impact of sex on diet-induced modulation of PAEE and BMR is lacking. Therefore, this study …

Body composition changes resulting from participation in a high protein-very low calorie diet program at two levels of caloric intake
… who were on a high protein-very low calorie diet at two levels of caloric intake for twelve weeks. Subjects consumed a liquid diet preparation consisting of 420 kcal/day (group 1, n = 10) or 800 kcal/day (group 2, n = 7). Measures of height, weight, body density (hydrostatic weighing), total …

Factors involved with successful weight loss maintenance
… consisting of a very low calorie (530 kcal) liquid diet, and a supervised exercise program corresponding to 60% VO₂ max for 30-40 min., 3 times/week. Group 2 ( n=8) consisted of an eight week treatment program, consisting of mild caloric restriction (1200-1500 kcal/day), and a supervised …

Exploring Chemically Mediated Interactions Between Spotted Lanternfly, Lycorma delicatula, and Its Host Plants in the Mid-Atlantic Region of the United States
… A. altissima. Chapter IV develops a host-free liquid-diet to deliver allelochemicals such as ailanthone. Third and fourth instar nymphs survived longer on a mixed-sugar diet than on a sucrose diet with amino acids and vitamins. Administration of ailanthone increased third-instar consumption …

Effect of Smoke Exposure and Ethanol Ingestion on Anti-Pneumococcal Host Defenses
… were switched from their normal rat chow to a liquid diet containing 0%, 16%, 26%, or 36% EtOH calories. For certain experiments, rats were fed the 36% EtOH diet ad libitum or pair-fed a liquid control diet that did not contain alcohol. Consumption of the 26% or 36% EtOH diets alone resulted in …
