Effects of high fat diet on body weight and food intake in OLETF rats. A. Body Weight: High fat feeding resulted in greater increases in body weight in obese OLETF rats than in lean LETO control rats. B. Caloric Intake: Access to a high fat diet leads to greater overconsumption in OLETF rats than in LETO rats. LETO Chow: Long-Evans Tokushima Otsuka control rats with access to a regular chow diet; LETO MF: LETO rats with access to a medium fat diet; LETO HF: LETO rats with access to a high fat diet; OLETF Chow: Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty rats with access to a regular chow diet; OLETF MF: OLETF rats with access to a medium fat diet; and OLETF HF: OLETF rats with access to a high fat diet. Values are means ± SEM. n = 4–7/group.
