Summary:Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences, St. Boniface General Hospital Research Centre, and Department of Physiology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada R2H 2A6 To examine effects of food restriction resembling very-low-calorie dieting on heart performance, normal rats were fed 25% of ad libitum food intake for 14 days. Although heart weight decreased ( P
