Figure 1. Effects of WBM feeding on body weight, liver weight, ALT serum levels and uterus weight.

Figure 1

Seven-week old female C57B1/6J mice were ovariectomized. These mice are a model of postmenopausal women (OVX, n = 16). Control mice (sham, n = 16) were subjected to sham operation survival surgery. Both sham and OVX mice were fed a HFD (n = 8/per group) or HFD with WBM (n = 8/per group) diet for 3 months. Body weight was measured once a week. (A) Body weight measurement of sham mice. (B) Body weight measurement of OVX mice. (C) Liver weight. (D) ALT serum levels. (E) Uterus weight. Values are expressed as mean and standard error for 8 mice. * Statistical significance was defined as P<0.05.
