To compare the effect of the consumption of buriti oil and soybean oil on the metabolism of rats under stress induced by iron overload. A total of 28 rats were randomized into control groups who consumed diet added of soybean (CS) or buriti oil (CB) and gavage with saline and two experimental groups...
