Difructose anhydride III and exercise increase bone strength in the thigh.
2004 FEB 5 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- Difructose anhydride III and exercise increase bone strength in the thigh.
According to recent research published in the Journal of Nutrition, "difructose anhydride III (DFAIII), a nondigestible disaccharide, promotes intestinal calcium absorption. Exercise-induced mechanical stimuli are essential for bone growth. In the present study, we examined the effects of consuming DFAIII and voluntary running exercise on calcium absorption and bone characteristics using male Sprague-Dawley rats (4 weeks old)."
"The study was designed in a 2 x 2 factorial arrangement with two conditions (sedentary or exercised) and two diets [AIN-93G diet with or without DFAIII (30 g/kg diet)]," described K. Shiga and colleagues, Hokkaido University, Graduate School of Agriculture.
"Both consuming DFAIII and running exercise increased net calcium absorption, and the effects of DFAIII and exercise were additive. Both consuming DFAIII and exercise also increased femoral variables such as calcium content and total bone mineral density (BMD); however, only consuming DFAIII increased bone strength in the femur."
"Conversely, running exercise augmented tibial calcium ...
