Weanling male rats of Wistar strain were fed relatively high-calories-diet containing 1% (K₁ group), 5% (K∧5 group) and 10% Chinese cabbage kimchi juice (K∧10 group) for 4 weeks to study their effects on body weight gain rate, serum lipids levels and other blood biochemical parameters. In this study it was found out that significant decrease in body weight gain rate, diet efficiency ratio, serum triglyceride level, serum total cholesterol level, blood glucose level and LDL-cholesterol level was observed in K∧10 group as compared to control group fed only high-calories-diet. Significant increase in HDL-cholesterol level, GPT activity, GOT activity and creatinine level was found in K∧10 group as compared to control group.
