Abstract: PURPOSE: Due to the progressive increasing in the use of gasified drinks and weight gain in the Brazilian population, in addition to the fact that carbonic gas is present in all soft drinks, an experimental study was conducted using rats as the subject to investigate the effects of gasified water in the hydric ingestion and food intake, weight gain, gastric area, blood sugar, hematocrit, and hemoglobin. METHODS: Four groups of 12 rats were studied for 36 days while receiving the following daily diet, four time… Show more

“…Stature is not significantly related to the sum of skinfolds, while the biiliocristal width is (ANOVA, F 5 136.7, df 5 2, 1160, P < 0.0001). of stomach walls, especially antral distension (Parker et al, 2004;Santiago et al, 2004). A larger stomach needs greater bulk of food to achieve distension of its walls.…”

“…Moreover, the extended eating intake caused a significant weight gain in the animals treated with the same water. Nevertheless, the glycemia hematocrit and hemoglobin data did not demonstrated significant alterations in any group 6 . The gastric areas were analyzed through radiographic exam and revealed significant enlargement in the animals that made use of gasified water after five weeks of experimentation.…”

“…However, the weight control begun to present alterations since the end of the fourth week of experimental investigation, leading thus to the conclusion that the gasified water increased both, the volume of hydric ingestion and dry food intake. Therefore, the animals' weight increased since the fifth week of experimentation as well 6 .…”
