Use of sucrose and mixed sugars are more likely to lead to weight gain than use of honey, according to a new study published in the April 2007 issue of Food Science.<BR>
<BR>
The study led by L.M. Chepulis from Waikato University in Hamilton, New Zealand showed rats that were on a diet with honey had significantly lower weight gain than rats on a diet with sucrose and mixed sugars.<BR>
<BR>
In the study, Chepulis assigned 40 6-week old Sprague-Dawley rats a powdered diet either with no sugar, or 8 percent of mixed sugars as in honey, or 10 percent honey for 6 weeks.<BR>
<BR>
The weight gain by rats on the honey diet is comparable to that by rats on the diet without sugars, according to the study.<BR>
<BR>
Sugars in the diet increased levels of HbA1c and triglycerides compared to the diet without sugar. But no difference in percentage of body fat or protein levels was observed.<BR>
