ABSTRACT


The experiment described in the paper focused
on effects of complementary and excess diet supplementation on fatty tissue accumulation
and blood triacylglycerol, total cholesterol and HDL-cholesterol levels in rats.
Untreated wheat, corn grains, and barley grits in the original diet were isocalorically
substituted with wheat flour, sucrose, and B vitamins.The change of
the composition of the diet and its supplementation, especially excess,
were found to significantly lowered diet consumption but increased accumulation
of perivisceral (per 100 g food consumed) and intramuscular fat and significantly
increased triacylglycerol, cholesterol and its HDL-fraction levels in the blood.

Key words: rat, supplementation, vitamins, lipids, fatty tissue.
