RESUMO
Two groups of nine weanling male rats each were def different diets for 60 days. Group A (control) was fed a full casein diet containing 17 por ciento protein. The group B received the same diet plus nitrite, fried bacon and proline. Diet B induced increased body weight gain and increased plasma 1-lactic acid and cholesterol levels, as well as a decrease in plasma selenium. We suggest that the adverses effects of diet B are related to peroxidation, with an increased nutritional need for selenium
