Fasting Reveals the Effects of a Plant Extract- and Microalgae-Derived Nutraceutical on Lipid Metabolism and Hepatic Physiology in Juvenile

PubMed · 2026-01-01

A nutraceutical blend from plant extracts and microalgae, added to a plant-based fish diet, altered how juvenile fish processed fats and managed liver function when food was withheld — suggesting these supplements can meaningfully shift metabolic resilience during stress.

1

A nutraceutical combining plant extracts and microalgae altered lipid metabolism pathways in juvenile fish livers during fasting stress

2

Hepatic (liver) physiology showed measurable changes in fish receiving the supplement compared to controls, indicating organ-level metabolic effects

3

The fasting challenge model revealed supplement effects that may not have been detectable under normal feeding conditions, highlighting stress as a diagnostic tool
