Molasses Increases HDL Cholesterol in Rats Research Note

Abstract: Two experiments were conducted to determine whether molasses might exert effects on serum lipoproteins. In experiment 1, 24 rats were divided into two groups and fed diets containing liquid molasses from sugar beet or sucrose (7.71 g of molasses dry matter or sucrose per kg of diet). The second experiment included four groups of rats (n = l2/group) and was conducted in a bifactorial design, with the factors being molasses (non-supplementation vs. supplementation of 77.1 g of molasses dry matter per kg of diet … Show more

“…Few data are available in the literature on molasses bioactivity in in vivo or ex vivo systems: sugar molasses have been reported to have immunomodulatory activity in human whole blood cell cultures, 46 to raise HDL cholesterol level in rats, 47 and to have inhibitory effects on mutation and nitric oxide production in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated macrophages. 48 To our knowledge this work is the first one evidencing molasses effectiveness in the counteraction of the oxidative damage in cultured cells.…”
