Summary: The study investigated the effects on fatty liver development of feeding rats a control diet, a high-fat diet or a high-fat diet supplemented with creatine. Liver fat increased in the rats fed a high-fat diet over 3 weeks. This effect was prevented by supplementing the high-fat diet with creatine.
Key Takeaways
When rats consumed a high fat diet, they showed an increase in liver fat. However, when the high fat diet was supplemented with creatine the increase in liver fat was prevented.
