Table 6.

The changes of feces total cholesterol and triglyceride concentration in normal and high fructose rats fed the experimental diets for 23 weeks.

	Con	HF	HF + GA
Feces wet weight (g/d)	1.7 ± 0.2	1.5 ± 0.1	1.3 ± 1.0 *
Feces dry weight (g/d)	1.5 ± 0.1 *	1.2 ± 0.1	1.0 ± 0.1 *
Fecal total cholesterol (mg/g)	28.5 ± 1.7 *	25.6 ± 2.5	33.3 ± 2.1 *
Fecal triglyceride (mg/g)	1.4 ± 0.4 *	2.6 ± 0.5	3.8 ± 1.3 *
Bile acids (μmoL/g)	45.9 ± 2.4 *	32.2 ± 2.9	49.5 ± 4.7 *

Results are expressed as mean ± standard deviation values (n = 8).

^*p < 0.05 compared with HF.

Con = control; HF = high fructose; HF + GA = high fructose + Gelidium.
