High caloric diets with high amounts of fats and sweeteners such as fructose may predispose organisms to neurodegenerative diseases.
This study aimed to examine the effects of a high-fat high-fructose diet (HFFD) on the behavior of mice, energy metabolism, and markers of oxidative stress in murine cerebral cortex. Dietary α-ketoglutarate (AKG) was chosen as a treatment which could modulate the putative effects of HFFD.
