Description

Ana Yamada and co-authors feed plant compounds to neutered cats and measure appetite and body makeup, in a 2024 study. Neutering predisposes cats to obesity, a growing pet health problem. Isoflavones, estrogen-like compounds from soy, may help hold lean mass and curb intake.

Sixteen neutered adults were split into two groups of eight for ninety-nine days. One group ate a commercial diet with one percent added isoflavone. CT scans at the start and end mapped fat and muscle. Satiety tests ran twice mid-study, and final blood work covered hunger and fullness hormones, from ghrelin to leptin. The design tests a functional-food idea for the many neutered cats whose owners struggle to keep weight off.
