Abstract:
Kim, J. H., Jung, E. Y., Hong, Y. H., Bae, S. H., Kim, J. M., Noh, D. O., Nozaki, T., Inoue, T. and Suh, H. J. 2012. Short Communication: Pet foods with yeast hydrolysate can reduce body weight and increase girth in beagle dogs. Can. J. Anim. Sci. 92: 207–210. Beagle dogs fed pet foods that included yeast hydrolysate (YH) were used in the present study to assess the possible use of YH as a functional anti-obesity ingredient in pet food. The change in weight and girth in the YH groups was significantly (P 〈 0.05) lower than that in the control. Plasma malondialdehyde was significantly (P 〈 0.05) lower in the YH groups compared with that in the control. Plasma levels of the reduced form of glutathione were significantly (P 〈 0.05) higher in the YH groups than those in the control. Therefore, YH could be recommended as an anti-obesity functional feed source for dogs.
