Body Mass (BM) (in gram, values are means with their standard error) and percentage BM gain in experimental groups after 1st, 2nd and 3th cycles, where SC is standard chow and HF is the high-fat diet.

Differences among groups were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and post hoc test of Bonferroni (in the signaled cases, P[a]different from SC counterpart;[b]different from HF counterpart,[c]different from SC2/HF2/SC2).Differences among the cycles were analyzed using one-way ANOVA of repeated measures and post-hoc test of Bonferroni (in the signaled cases, P[†]different from SC2;[‡]different from HF2,[Δ]different from SC2/HF2,[§]different from HF2/SC2.
