 | | On the other hand, suppression of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D with high calcium diets is thought to reduce intracellular calcium in fat cells, thereby decreasing lipogenesis and increasing lipolysis, resulting in an anti- obesity effect (19,22). |
 | | When these mice were fed a low calcium, high fat, high sucrose diet for six weeks, adipocyte lipogenesis increased, lipolysis decreased, and gain in body weight and adipose tissue accelerated (19). |
 | | In contrast, the high calcium diet markedly inhibited lipogenesis, increased lipolysis, and suppressed fat accretion and weight gain (19). |
