Abstract
Plasma cholesterol and triglycerides in young female rats fed for 5 weeks on three experimental diets containing vitamin C and/or lard in comparison with the commercial pellet diet, were studied.The rats fed vitamin C showed no change of body weight whilst the animals fed lard gained in body weight.The variations in comparison with control are statistically significant.Plasma levels, cholesterol and triglycerides increased significantly in rats fed lard supplements.The cholesterol and triglycerides content did not change significatively with supplementary ascorbic acid.
