Abstract:ScopeHigher intake of cruciferous and allium vegetables is associated with lower cardiometabolic risk. Little research has investigated the cardiometabolic effects of S‐methyl cysteine sulfoxide (SMCSO), found abundant in these vegetables. This study hypothesizes that SMCSO will blunt development of metabolic syndrome features in mice fed high‐fat feed.Methods and resultsFifty C57BL/6 male mice are randomly assigned to standard‐chow, high‐fat, or high‐fat supplemented with low‐SMCSO (43 mg kg−1 body weight [BW… Show more
