Effect of (poly)phenol-rich 'Daux Belan' apple supplementation on diet-induced obesity and glucose intolerance in C57BL/6NCrl mice.

ABSTRACT: Obesity is a state of metabolic dysfunction that can lead to dyslipidemia and impaired glucose homeostasis. Apple polyphenols have been shown to ameliorate dyslipidemia/metabolic dysfunction in humans. The influence of apple (poly)phenols on energy metabolism in high-fat (HF) diet-induced obese mice remains controversial. This study examined the effect of dietary supplementation of (poly)phenol-rich 'Daux Belan' apple (DB; 6.2 mg gallic acid equivalence (GAE)/mouse/day; 0.15% (poly)phenol) in the form of freeze-dried powder on glucose and lipid metabolism in male HF-fed C57BL/6NCrl mice, in comparison to low-(poly)phenol-containing 'Zestar' apple (Z; 0.4 mg GAE/mouse/day). Obesity, glucose intolerance, hypertriglyceridemia, and hepatic lipid vacuolation were induced by HF feeding while cir
