Figure 1

Body weight, biochemical profile (general metabolism), and Q10 level before and after cola treatment. BW: body weight, TG: triglycerides, AIP: atherogenic index in plasma, and Q10: coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone Q10). and . Compared with W, C rats showed overweight (+8%, ), hyperglycemia (+11%, ), hypertriglyceridemia (2-fold, ), higher AIP (2-fold, ), and lower Q10 levels (−55%, ).
