Figure Lengend Snippet: Body composition based on Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DXA) scan, including ( a ) fat mass and ( b ) lean mass at baseline, week 8 and week 16. All data are presented as mean ± SEM. Symbol ‘*’ indicates a significant difference compared to the C group in the same week ( p < 0.05), ‘#’ indicates a significant difference compared to the MS group in the same week ( p < 0.05), ‘Ø’ indicates a significant difference in the same group at week 8 compared to baseline ( p < 0.05) and ‘†’ indicates a significant difference in the same group at week 16 compared to week 8 ( p < 0.05). Abbreviations: C (control), MS (HCHF diet-induced rats without treatment), MS+DeGT (HCHF diet-induced rats treated with dehydrated SBH from G. thoracica species) and MS+RGT (HCHF diet-induced rats treated with raw SBH from G. thoracica species).
