Obesity and its secondary complications continue to increase worldwide and constitute one
of the most important health care problems in many societies. It is now clear that the …

Background It is well established that high-fat feeding increases adiposity and impairs
glucose metabolism in mice. The aim of this study was to determine the extent to which …

Objective Ad libitum high‐fat diets (HFDs) spontaneously increase caloric intake in rodents,
which correlates positively with weight gain. However, it remains unclear why rodents …

Scope: This study investigated the global transcriptional and metabolic changes occurring at
multiple time points over 24 wk in response to a high‐fat diet (HFD). Methods and results …

Although obesity is often associated with high-fat diets, it can develop from a variety of meal
patterns. Excessive intake of simple carbohydrates is one consistent eating behavior leading …

Background Very low carbohydrate (VLC) diets are used to promote weight loss and
improve insulin resistance (IR) in obesity. Since the high fat content of VLC diets may …

37 We tested the hypothesis that for rats fed a high fat diet (HFD), a prioritization of
maintaining protein 38 intake may increase energy consumption and hence result in obesity …
