The 90-day oral toxicity of d-psicose in male Wistar rats. [PDF]

J Clin Biochem Nutr, 2012
d-Psicose is a rare sugar present in small quantities in natural products. In a previous study, we showed that d-psicose suppresses increase in plasma glucose and reduces body fat accumulation in rats. Based on acute toxicity testing in rats, d-psicose is classified as an ordinary substance (LD(50) = 16 g/kg).
