What did studies of functional food bioactives find?
3Studies of functional food bioactives measured 3 outcomes; the most studied are total proteins (1 study), body weight (1) and symmetric dimethylarginine (1).

Total proteins

Functional food bioactives increase total proteins in dogs (functional foods) (+6.7%).

Body weight
no changein dogs1
Functional food bioactives showed no clear effect on body weight in dogs (functional foods).
“Feeding functional foods did not alter body weight, but increased (P<0.001) serum protein concentration (+6.7%).”

Symmetric dimethylarginine
downin dogs1−14%
Functional food bioactives decrease symmetric dimethylarginine in dogs (FF2) (-14.3%).
“Dogs fed the highest supplemented level of bioactives (FF2) had lower (P<0.001) symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA) concentrations (-14.3%).”
