High phenolics Rutgers Scarlet Lettuce improves glucose metabolism in high fat diet-induced obese mice

Scope The ability of high phenolic Rutgers Scarlet Lettuce (RSL) to attenuate metabolic syndrome and gut dysbiosis was studied in very high fat diet (VHFD)‐fed mice. Phenolic absorption was assessed in vivo and in a gastrointestinal tract model. Methods and results Mice were fed VHFD, VHFD supplemen...

Zusammenfassung:Scope The ability of high phenolic Rutgers Scarlet Lettuce (RSL) to attenuate metabolic syndrome and gut dysbiosis was studied in very high fat diet (VHFD)‐fed mice. Phenolic absorption was assessed in vivo and in a gastrointestinal tract model. Methods and results Mice were fed VHFD, VHFD supplemented with RSL (RSL‐VHFD) or store‐purchased green lettuce (GL‐VHFD), or low‐fat diet (LFD) for 13 weeks. Compared to VHFD or GL‐VHFD‐fed groups, RSL‐VHFD group showed significantly improved oral glucose tolerance (p
