Researchers at Rutgers University in New Jersey tested whether phenolic-enriched raspberry extracts, compared with raspberry ketone, can promote resilience toward metabolic alterations caused by an obesity-inducing diet. Their study was published in the journal Nutrition Research.
Based on these findings, the researchers concluded that raspberry ketone and phenolic-enriched raspberry extract can prevent weight gain via different mechanisms that stop excess fat accumulation following exposure to a high-fat diet.
