Impact of a low fructose, low glycemic index and low glycemic load dietary intervention on liver function, body composition and cardio metabolic risk factors in children and adolescents with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
DownloadSpring 2013
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a common liver disease in obese children. Diets high in added fructose (high fructose corn syrup; HFCS)/glycemic index (GI)/glycemic load (GL) in children with NAFLD are associated with increased inflammation and liver dysfunction. We hypothesized that...

Succession, herbicides, forage nutrition and elk body condition at Mount St. Helens, Washington
DownloadSpring 2014
Concerns have been voiced over recent reductions in forest cutting, herbicide spraying, and past heavy grazing on nutritional resources for elk (Cervus elaphus) and their body condition in the Pacific Northwest. I evaluated the effects of herbicides and herbivory on elk forage in a paired,...
