Effect of OCP supplementation on various biological parameters in rat serum. Rats were fed with (F) or without (SD) a high-fat diet, supplemented with Opuntia cladode powders (OCP) from O. streptacantha and O. ficus-indica, respectively (F-OSC, F-OFI). a Adiponectin (μg/mL); (b) leptin (pg/mL); (c) triglycerides (mM); (d) glucose (mM); (e) insulin (pg/mL). All data represent mean ± SEM. Each group was composed of 10 rats. Statistical analyses involved ANOVA, followed by Newman–Keuls post hoc test. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.005 indicates significant difference from group SD;§p < 0.05, §§p < 0.01 significant difference from group F
