Alas my supply of unprocessed beef suet (for rendering down to make may favourite deep frying oil) just kept failing to deliver so I've given up and supermarket dripping it has to be.<BR/><BR/>Caseine was probably chosen for D12451 as it is insulogenic due to a preponderance of certain amino acids, compared to, say chicken, which seems largely insulin neutral. No doubt in combination with the fructose and glucose loads this would encourage insulin resistance and the desired "high fat" problems.<BR/><BR/>You can see the logic of caseine being insulinogenic as it will help convert little calves in to big calves!<BR/><BR/>PeterPeterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14527788116058656094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36840063.post-64019929076522129012007-12-04T03:51:00.000+00:002007-12-04T03:51:00.000+00:00Quote from the D12451 mouse diet data sheet: "Most...Quote from the D12451 mouse diet data sheet: "Most diets require storage in a cool dry environment. Stored correctly they should last 3-6 months."<BR/><BR/>My comment: if that was the real pork lard it would have lasted much shorter! I suspect they used hydrogenated "lard" just like in this study: http://www.ptbo.igs.net/~stanb/InDigest3.htm#a3<BR/><BR/>Where in the US would they be able to buy real unhydrogenated pork lard? It disappeared from the supermarket shelves around 1990. Perhaps they bought some home-made from Russian or Polish ethnic shops? I doubt it. <BR/><BR/>I am curious as to why almost all the protein is caseine? Does it not make any difference for the mice?<BR/><BR/>StanStan Bleszynskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03922719716458272303noreply@blogger.com
