Abstract:Black ginseng is being studied to prevent obesity caused by a high-fat diet (HFD). The aim of this study was to evaluate the obesity-preventing effect of black ginseng extract (BGE) in the serum, liver, and hypothalamus of mice on an HFD using metabolomic techniques. Mice were divided into four groups which were respectively fed a normal diet (CTL), an HFD, an HFD with a low concentration of BGE (BGEL), and an HFD with a high concentration of BGE (BGEH) for 8 weeks. Metabolite profiling revealed a clear separa… Show more
