Liver weight (a), the ratio of liver weight to body weight (b), hepatic triglyceride content (c), and Oil Red O staining area (d) in water-control, 10% fructose solution-control, and fructose pair-fed ginger-treated rats at week 5. Animals were coadministered with ginger extract (20 or 50 mg/kg/day) or vehicle (ginger: 0 mg/kg, 5% Gum Arabic) by oral gavage daily for 5 weeks. Data are means ± SEM ( each group). .
