Figure 1. SCFAs protect against the high-fat diet induced increases in body weight.

Figure 1

Three- to four-week-old C57BL/6 J male mice were fed a HFD diet and four SCFA-containing HFD diets—HFD-A, HFD-P, HFD-B and HFD-SCFA—with a low-fat diet as the control (C). (A) Body weight changes during the sixteen weeks of feeding (n = 15). (B and C) Food and energy intake per mouse at 2, 8 and 12 weeks of feeding (n = 15). Data are shown as the mean ± SD. *Compared to the lean control (C) group, P < 0.05; #compared to the HFD group, P < 0.05.
