Intake of residuals from Atlantic cod attenuated blood pressure increase but did not delay development of kidney damage in obese Zucker fafa rats

Background: Documentation of health effects of residuals after fish filleting may motivate both consumers and producers to increase the use of this under-utilised protein source. Objectives: The primary objective of the present study was to investigate the effects of a diet containing resid- uals from Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) filleting on the development of high blood pressure in obese Zucker fa/fa rats, which spontaneously develop hypertension and proteinuria.
