Sprague-Dawley male rats were fed instant noodles with and without dietary fiber(1.5% of sodium alginate and 1.5% of polydixtrose) for 50 days. Body weight gain was remarkably inhibited in dietary fiber-added noodle group, and showed a similar trend to their feed and gross efficiencies compared with control group. Body fat contents estimated by T.M. index were also remarkably decreased by 2 times in dietary fiber-added noddle. Feeding of dietary fiber-added noodle resulted in a slight decreases of about 10% in triglyceride and total cholesterol levels, but in remarked decreases of 15% and 25% in LDL-chlesterol and atherogenic index, respectively, compared with control group. HDL-Cholesterol levels as a anti-cholesterol and atherogenic significantly increased in dietary fiber-added noodle group compared with control group. Malondialdehyde(MDA)levels as a aging index and hydroxyl radical formations as a strong reactive oxygen species(ROS) were effectively decreased in dietary fiber-added noodle group, whereas superoxide dismutase(SOD) activities were effectively decreased in dietary fiber-added noodle compared with control group. These results suggest that feeding of dietary fiber-added noodle containing alginic acid of brown algae not only effectively inhibits obesity, but also modulates chronic degenerative disease and aging process.
