Red peppers with different pungencies and bioactive compounds differentially modulate energy and glucose metabolism in ovariectomized rats fed high fat diets

We hypothesized that differences in red peppers pungencies and bioactive compounds are associated with different effects on obesity and glucose tolerance, and tested the hypothesis in ovariectomized (OVX) rats fed high fat diets. Increasing red pepper pungency was associated higher concentrations of...
