Effect of chronic high energy diet (HED) and subsequent intervention on plasma metabolites.

1HED was fed to pigs for 16 wks starting at 5 wks of age.2Alanine aminotransferase.3Alkaline phosphatase.4Aspartate aminotransferase.5γ-Glutamyl transferase.6At the end of the 16 wk treatment, a subset (n = 7) of HED pigs were transitioned back to the control diet for an additional 6 wk. LSmeans comparing only the subset pigs at the beginning (HED) and end of the intervention period (INT) are reported.
