Effects of a high-fat diet on the bone structure of Wistar rats: a systematic review.

Context: Saturated fats found in diets known as high-fat, cafeteria, or Western diets appear to have a negative effect on bone structure; however, few studies have focused on investigating this association, and the data available in the literature remain controversial.

Objective: The aim of the current review was to investigate the effects of a high-fat dietary intake on the bone structure of Wistar rats.

Data Sources: A search for articles was carried out in the Pubmed/MEDLINE, Web of Science, Embase, and Scopus databases.
