Changes in body weight throughout the study and schematic representation of the experimental design. Rats (n = 8) were fed a standard chow diet prior to the study (from 3-8 wk of age). Then, control and experimental diets were provided for 16 wk. An oral fat challenge test (OFC) and a meal tolerance test (MTT) were conducted on different rats (n = 4 in each test).
