The number of obese people is increasing in Korea due to the changes of meal pattern and the lack of physical activities. Currently, obesity is the prevalent health problem in the world. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of mulberry leaf-Jeolpyun on the serum lipids of overweighted male university students. After 3 days of education and adaptation on this study, twenty male university students with 20.9yrs old average were fed a uniformed dormitory foodservice, and they ate constant amount of 9% mulberry leaves added-rice cake, Jeolpyun(100g) instead of boiled rice(l00g) , on each meal. Experiment was conducted during 14 days period. All meals were provided promptly. and the subejects were required to have breakfast, lunch, and dinner on weekdays. Mean height, weight, and BMI were 176.55cm, 90.OOkg, and 28.73, respectively. Although it was not very significant, body weight of the subjects appeared to be reduced after consuming the 100g substitute diet of mulberry leaf-Jeolpyun. Daily energy Intake of the subjects was 2,360.6kcal, which represents 94% of the Korean RDA. The ratio of energy obtained from carbohydrate, protein, and fat was 55: 17'27 As compared with the Korean RDA, 65 : 15 20, carbohydrate consumption was decreased but protein and fat consumption was a little bit increased. The ratio of animal-protein source was 58%, and animal-fat intake was 42%. Triglyceride concentrations decreased. but HDL-cholesterol was in the reversed manner The concentrations of HDL-cholesterol increased significantly after the 2wk-lOOg subtitute diet of mulberry leaf-Jeolpyun (p<0.05) . However, there were no significant differences in total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol con concentrations .
