Preventive Effects of Ananas comosus Juice on Obesity Risk Factors in Female Wistar Rats

The present study aim was to assess the preventive effects of Ananas comosus juice consumption on the risk factors of obesity in female Wistar rats. 108 rats were tested for 90 days. After randomization, they were shared out into six groups including four experimental groups (GTc, GPlp, GEns and GBrS) and two control groups (). The control group consumed 1.20 ml of distilled water, the experimental rats received in oral, 1.20 ml of drinks made from the different parts of Ananas comosus fruit. The measurements of morphometric and biochemical parameters were carried out on Day 0 (D0), Day 30 (D30), Day 60 (D60) and Day 90 (D90). The analysis showed that compared to the positive control rats, the consumption of the various drinks slowed down significantly (P < 0.001);the evolution of the morphometric and biochemical parameters likely to induce obesity in experimental rats which have an increase in a protective factor (HDL;P < 0.001). These results indicate that consumption of different parts of Ananas comosus’s juices had preventive effects on risk factors related to obesity. Moreover, the fruit juice treatment has been found to be more effective.
