Figure 4

Food transit time of age-matched C57Bl/6 mice after an acute (72-hour) and chronic (18 week) exposure to a high fat diet with or without ascorbic acid or phytosterol supplements. 4a) Acute exposure to dietary supplements did not alter food transit time when compared to the high fat control (n = 7; ANOVA). 4b) Animals chronically exposed to PS and PSAA supplements exhibited significant differences in transit time of a HF meal when compared to the HF control (ANOVA with post hoc Tukey Test; n = 7 for HF and AA; n = 3 for PS, n = 4 for PSAA).
