Abstract
When rats are fed and fasted on alternate days until their avg. wt. and food intake become constant sufficient food is stored during the feeding day for maintenance during the fasting day. If the diet is composed almost entirely of carbohydrate this is largely stored in the form of fat.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
