Abstract
Rats were fed a fat-free diet with or without soluble dietary fiber in seaweeds, sodium alginate, to investigate the effect of fiber on digestive organs and fatcontents of liver and serum under the conditionof no fat. Food intake of rats fedon diets with alginate was smaller than that without alginate during the early feeding period, but there was no difference between the rats fed with basal and alginate dietson the final day. Body weight and body weight gain of rats fed withalginate were less than those fed without alginate. Fecal weight of the alginatediet group was the largest. Wet weights of digestive or-gans such as liver, spleen, pancreas, kidney, cecum, small intestine, and large intestine were not significantly different among each diet group. In the liver, fat concentrations were significantly higher inrats fed without fat than in those fed with fat. The fat content in serum of fat-free diet rats was the highest, whereas that of the alginate diet rats was the lowest.
