Effects of Flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum) on Bone Health in Experimental Models
نویسنده
چکیده
Previous studies have showed protective effects of flaxseed intake. Nevertheless, little data are available about flaxseed effects on the bone health in experimental models. The review presents results of studies that evaluated the bone parameters of wistar rats fed flour or flaxseed oil during lactation (21 days), until adulthood (90 days), in lactating rats and as treatment of malnutrition after early weaning. These experimental studies suggest a beneficial effect of flaxseed in bone parameters. Received date: 20/03/2017 Accepted date: 10/04/2017 Published date: 17/04/2017

متن کاملEffects of the Oil and Mucilage from Flaxseed (Linum Usitatissimum) on Gastric Lesions Induced by Ethanol in Rats
The anti-ulcer activity of the oil and mucilage obtained from flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum) was evaluated in a rat model of ethanol-induced gastric ulcer. Our results show that pretreatment of rats with flaxseed oil and flaxseed mucilage significantly reduced the number and length of gastric ulcers induced by ethanol. Flaxseed oil was more effective than flaxseed mucilage in reducing the numbe...

متن کاملInfluence of the Lipid Phase Removal on the Quantification of Cu, Fe and Zn Bound to Proteins from Golden Flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum L.)
The analysis of metals bound to proteins requires careful sample preparation. Experimental procedures involved in this area should be developed aiming to retain the metal species bound to the protein structure. Some pre-fractionation steps are commonly used and in many cases it is necessary to disrupt the lipid-protein interaction by performing lipid removal before protein extraction. This pape...
متن کاملAssessments of body composition and bone parameters of lactating rats treated with diet containing flaxseed meal (Linum usitatissinum) during post-weaning period.
INTRODUCTION There are few studies on body composition and the effects of diet on weight postpartum women. The aim was to evaluate the body composition and bone parameters in lactating rats treated with diet containing flaxseed flour during postweaning period. METHODS After weaning, the lactating rat were divided in control (n = 6) and experimental (F, n = 6) group, treated with 25% flaxseed ...
