parameter in urine. Others parameters were analyzed in blood. AST, ALT, and FAS are expressed in IU/L, and glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides, phosphorus, and calcium are expressed in mmol/L and creatinine in μmol/L. Different letters indicate significant differences ( < 0.05) between all experimental groups. Experimental groups, 1, Metlin; 2, Synergy 1; 3, isoflavones; 4, Metlin + isoflavones; 5, Synergy 1 + isoflavones; 6, oophorectomized rats without inulins treatment; 7, not oophorectomized rats without inulins treatment.
