Effect of cocoa treatment on energy intake and excretion by high fat-fed obese mice

	LF	HF	HF-HFC
Food intake (g/mouse/week)	20 ± 0.2	20.5 ± 1.0	20.7 ± 1.0
Energy intake (kcal/week)	75.7 ± 0.8^*	106.3 ± 1.3	105.2 ± 1.3
Fecal lipid content (% wet weight)	8.4 ± 1.3	9.2 ± 0.7	14.3 ± 1.9^*

Values are expressed as mean ± SEM. Data on food and energy intake were pooled from both Experiment 1 and Experiment 2. Fecal samples were collected from each cage at week 15 in Experiment 1 in duplicate. Statistical significance was determined using the one-way ANOVA with Dunnet’s posttest
