High-Fat High-Energy Feeding Impairs Fasting Glucose and Increases Fasting Insulin Levels in the Göttingen Minipig

A bstract : High‐fat diet and obesity are known to be of major importance for development of type 2 diabetes in humans. High‐fat feeding can induce syndromes of glucose intolerance and/or insulin resistance in several species, and the Göttingen minipig might be a useful model for studying the effect of dietary high‐fat intake and obesity on glucose homeostasis and the susceptibility to diabetes. The present study was designed as a pilot study to...
