  1. All values are shown as means ± standard deviation (SD) (n = 6/group). Groups (S): One-way ANOVA revealed no significant differences on BW and food intake among groups. Groups (HFD): a: vs. HFD rats, b: vs. HFD + RFM rats, c: vs. HFD + RFM + T rats. d: vs. HFD + RFM + T rats. Different superscript letters in a row shows statistically significant differences among groups at (P ≤ 0.05). BW body weight, SC S diet control, S standard diet, HFD high-fat diet, RFM ramadan fasting model, T treadmill, G glucose administration.
