Abstract
- One of the main causes of obesity is an imbalance between energy intake and expenditure. One approach to facilitate weight loss is to decrease absorption of energy-rich nutrients by inhibition of pancreatic lipase. A spectrophotometric method was developed to evaluate the potential of milk fermented with lactic acid bacteria to inhibit pancreatic lipase in vitro. Fermentates produced with Lactobacillus helveticus strains at 42 °C exhibited the highest levels of lipase inhibition, with strains SC8, SC44 and SC45 inhibiting pancreatic lipase by >49%, significantly higher than the activity of a milk control. In all cases activity was retained after removal of large proteins including casein and in the
