Body weight and calorie intake throughout the 8 weeks of the experiment. Male and female weanling Sprague-Dawley rats were fed with adequate or marginal copper diet and had free access to deionized water or deionized water containing 10% fructose (w/v) for 8 weeks as described in the “Materials and Methods” section. Data represent means ± SD (n = 7–8). Cu, copper; A, adequate copper diet; AF, adequate copper diet +10% fructose (w/v) in the drinking water; M, marginal copper diet; MF, marginal copper diet +10% fructose (w/v) in the drinking water
