Facilitative effects of <i>Eucommia ulmoides</i> on fatty acid oxidation in hypertriglyceridaemic rats

Abstract

This study indicates that the promotion of fatty acid oxidation, probably by the action of phytochemicals, participates in the ameliorative effect of E. ulmoides leaves on hypertriglyceridaemia. These findings provide the scientific evidence for the functionality of E. ulmoides.
