Anti-Obesity Effects of Dietary D-Allulose and Medium-Chain Triglycerides in High-Fat Diet-Fed Rats

D -Allulose, a rare sugar, exerts anti-obesity effects by inhibiting hepatic li- pogenesis and promoting energy expenditure. Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) consist of three medium-chain fatty acids connected by glycerol. MCTs have been extensively investigated for their ability to reduce body fat accumulation. We previously investigated the anti-obesity effects of a combi- nation of dietary D -allulose and MCT (5% - 13%) in rats; however, we could not confirm the anti-obesity effects of MCT...
