Induction of body fat reduction by BoE supplementation. Increasing ratios of body fat. Average amounts of total fat (a), visceral fat (b), and subcutaneous fat (c) of the six experimental groups at week 0 = 100%, and the relative ratios at weeks 1, 4, 8, and 11 are shown. The fluctuation of body fat ratios of total fat (d), visceral fat (e), and subcutaneous fat (f) between high-fat diet control and BoE test groups. The values of the control groups = 100% throughout the experiments and the relative values of BoE-50 and BoE-500 for male and females are shown.
