Effect of high fat diet and adrenalectomy on body weight, adipose weight and food intake. High fat diet increased both (A) body weight (g) and (B) epididymal white adipose weight (g); adrenalectomy did not significantly affect either parameter. High fat diet also decreased calculated daily caloric intake (calories/day) (C), and this was also not significantly influenced by adrenalectomy. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. Groups with different letters are statistically different (p < 0.05) by ANOVA followed by Tukey-Kramer post hoc tests.
