The aged amygdala’s unique sensitivity to refined diets, independent of fat or sugar content: a brain region and cell type-specific analysis

Western-style diets, characterized by high levels of saturated fat and refined carbohydrates and low dietary fiber, are closely associated with cognitive decline, particularly among older adults. This study aimed to elucidate the specific contributions of macronutrients and the underlying mechanisms of these effects by examining the impact of short-term exposure to refined-ingredient diets (RDs) with […]

Western diet consumption and cognitive impairment: links to hippocampal dysfunction and obesity

While the two main components of the Western diet (saturated fats and simple carbohydrates) are linked with the development of obesity and Alzheimer’s disease, Kanoski & Davidson (2011) summarize the evidence indicating that the consumption of this Western diet is also associated with cognitive dysfunction. The focus is mainly on the learning and memory functions […]
