Effect of branched‐chain amino acid (BCAA) supplementation on insulin sensitivity and the serum level of glucose in diethylnitrosamine‐treated C57BL/KsJ‐db/db mice fed basal diet (CRF‐1), or supplemented with casein or BCAA. (a) The value of the quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI), was calculated to evaluate the insulin sensitivity. (b) The serum concentration of glucose was measured by the hexokinase method. Values are the means ± SD (n = 8). *P < 0.01; **P < 0.001.
