High fat diets and mouse colon mucosal membranes: a centrifugation study.
(Cancer Letters, 1983)
Female Swiss mice were fed on a control diet (laboratory chow, 6% fat)
or high fat diets (laboratory chow with added fat, principally corn oil, to
produce a fat content of 16% or 23%). Homogenate of colon mucosa ...
Cabbage and vitamin E: their effect on colon tumor formation in mice.
(Cancer Letters, 1987)
The effects of cabbage and vitamin E on colon carcinogenesis were
investigated in Swiss mice treated with 1,2-dimethylhydrazine. Throughout
the experiment the mice were fed a laboratory chow diet (46 mg vitamin E
per ...
Effect of high fat and nutrient depleted diets on colon tumor formation in mice.
(Cancer Letters, 1987)
We investigated the effect of high fat and nutrient depleted diets on the
formation of colon tumors in female Swiss mice treated with 1,2-
dimethylhydrazine (DMH). Mice received the following diets: control diet
(laboratory ...
Simplicity - the key to fruitful medical research
(Medical Hypotheses, 1985)
Medical research is here divided -into two broad
categories. The great majority of research is "complex"
and includes all studies of intricate body mechanisms.
A minority of research is "simple" and deals mainly ...
Does Beta-Carotene Prevent Cancer? A Critical Appraisal
(Nutrition Research, 1988)
The possible role of beta-carotene as a protective
nutrient against cancer is reviewed. Human prospective
and retrospective studies strongly indicate that
beta-carotene protects against lung cancer and probably
against ...
Dietary fats and coronary heart disease.
(Biomedicine Pharmacotherapy, 1996)
The prevention and treatment of coronary heart disease (CHD) necessitates vigorous dietary intervention so as 10
lower the serum cho1eslero11evel by at least 6%. Greater decreases in serum cholesterol can bring about ...
Refined carbohydrates - a cause of suboptimal nutrient intake.
(Medical Hypotheses, 1983)
During the refining of carbohydrate foods there is a
sharp drop in the concentration of dietary fiber and of
various vitamins and minerals. Estimates were made of the
effect of refining on the total diet intake of ...
Dietary fibre and the mouse colon: its influence on luminal pH, reducing activity, bile acid binding and cell proliferation.
(Cancer Letters, 1988)
Female, Swiss mice were fed semi-synthetic diets for 33 days. The diets were
fibre-free (FF) or supplemented with corn bran (CB) 12°~, wheat bran (WB)
12%, alfalfa (AL) 12oh, pectin (P) BOh, cellulose (CL) 6%, or lignin ...
Effect of Dietary Beta-Carotene on Hepatic Drug-Metabolizing Enzymes in Mice
(Journal of Clinical Biochemistry and Nutrition, 1987)
The effects of dietary supplements of beta-carotene (20-500
mg per kg diet) on hepatic microsomal drug-metabolizing enzyme activities
were studied in mice. Supplementation for 14 days resulted in marked
reductions in ...
Coronary heart disease - dietary lipids or refined carbohydrates?
(Medical Hypotheses, 1983)
The epidemiological evidence associating dietary lipids,
refined carbohydrates and coronary heart disease (CHD) is
evaluated. Population studies often show a high correlation
between dietary lipid and heart disease ...
