摘要
This study examined the physiological effects of replacing some of the casein with either a plant based, animal orcombination of protein sources in a high-fat diet fed to golden Syrian hamsters. Cooked kidney beans (BN) and beef(Bf ) patties drained of fat were fed at 25 and 50% of diet. A combination of BN and Bf (BNBf) was also fed at 25 and50%. Saturated fat content of the 25% Bf (Bf25) and 50% Bf (Bf50) increased 57 and 215% compared to Control. The Bfdiets also increased caloric density compared to the Control. Likewise, the 50% Bn (Bn50) diet had 60% less saturatedfat and lower caloric density than the Control. Despite these differences there were no differences in body weightgain or adipose weight between BN of Bf diets and Control. The BN50 diet reduced liver weight and increased caloricintake. The BN diets reduced total plasma cholesterol (TC). The BF diets also reduced TC but the results were notsignificant. The BN25, BN50 and BNBF50 diets also reduced low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. The BN and BF50diets reduced liver fat. The BN diets decreased fecal fat excretion while the BF diets increased excretion. This suggeststhat increased fat excretion might offset the higher total fat and saturated fat of the BF diets to reduce adverse effectson body weight, adipose weight, and cholesterol. The high-fat content of the base (Control) diet may have muted theeffects of the diet treatments.
