Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Effects of low-fat high-carbohydrate and high-fat low-carbohydrate diets on visceral fat deposition and energy metabolism were investigated in rats and mice under an isocaloric feeding condition. Deposition of visceral fats was higher in animals fed a 21% fat diet compared with those fed a 7% fat diet. However, the difference was small. Difference in dietary fat types did not influence the extent of visceral fat deposition induced by a high fat diet. Hepatic triacylglycerol concentration was varied by the quantity and quality of dietary fats, but it did not relate to visceral fat deposition. These results suggest that an increase in visceral fat deposition induced by a high fat diet is gradually caused when dietary fat intake exceeds the upper limit of ability of fat expenditure in the body.
