Effects of Indigestible Dextrin and Pectin on Lipid Metabolism

Abstract
|
|
|
Recently developed, indigestible dextrin(PF-C)is a low-viscosity, water-soluble dietary fiber obtained by heating and enzyme-treatment of potato starch. Because of low viscosity, PF-C is suitable for drink material as soluble dietary fiber. The
physiological functions of PF-C on lipid metabobism were investigated in this study. Weaning Sprague-dawley male rats were fed diets for 6 weeks: control(NC), control + 5% pectin(NP), control + 5% indigestible dextrin(ND). The results are
summarized as
follows : dietary intakes were not different with those of other groups. Body weights and FER(weight gain/dietary intake) were higher in control group than NP or ND groups. Epidydimal pad fat was higher in control group but not statistically
significant. It appeared that pectin and indigestible dextrin as dietary fiber were able to reduce weight gain. Weights of liver, spleen and kidney were not different with those of other groups. Serum total lipid and serum cholesterol of ND group
were
lower than those of NC group but not significant. Serum and liver triglycerides tended to be increased in NC group relative to other groups. Serum and liver cholestrol were lower in ND group relative other groups but not significant.
