Abstract:
Strong and very strong positive correlations differing from those in the control were found between chemical elements in the liver of rats with experimental alimentary obesity under conditions of physiological hunger and soon after fatty food intake. These findings attest to sustained metabolism disturbances in obesity and formation of a pathological system. Considering the appearance of strong and very strong correlations of Br and Rb in alimentary obesity, more attention should be paid to the investigation of the role of these poorly studied elements in lipid metabolism.

Metabolic Regulation:
The liver is the central organ involved in regulating blood composition. It stabilizes blood glucose levels, maintaining them within the range of 70–110 mg/dL. When these levels drop, the liver breaks down glycogen reserves and releases glucose into the bloodstream. It can also...
