The impact of high-fat diets ... even in the
short term ...
New research in
the FASEB Journal shows that high-fat diets are just as
unhealthful in the short term as they are in the long term.
"Western diets are typically high in fat and are associated
with long-term complications, such as obesity, diabetes,
and heart failure, yet the short-term consequences
of such diets have been given relatively little attention,"
said Andrew Murray, co-author of the study and currently at
the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. "We hope
that the findings of our study will help people to think
seriously about reducing the fat content of their daily
food intake to the immediate benefit of their general
health, well-being, and alertness."
"It's
nothing short of a high-fat hangover," said Gerald
Weissmann, M.D., Editor-in-Chief of The FASEB Journal. "A
long weekend spent eating hotdogs, French fries, and pizza
in Orlando might be a great treat for our taste buds, but
they might send our muscles and brains out to lunch."
