Body weight was measured at the beginning and after 12 weeks of exposure to a HFD. Serum TC, LDL, HDL and TG levels were measured after 12 weeks of exposure to a HFD. Gram food intake per body weight was measured every morning through the weighing of the HFD, and mice of each group were measured at three different time points from week 0, 6 to 12 to obtain the average food intake. Values are means ± SD; n = 8 per group.
