Exciting news! Our latest paper is out: we studied how short-term high-fat diets and aging affect bone health in mice. Both increase bone fragility, but in different, sex-specific ways. And when combined? High-fat diets can worsen age-related bone fragility in mice. doi.org/10.1038/s420...

Short-term high-fat diet impacts bone material properties and metabolism for adult and aged C57BL/6JN mice - Communications Biology Short-term moderate high fat diet and aging both decrease bone fracture toughness but differently impact bone tissue properties and metabolism. The impacts of aging and high fat diet on bone fracture ... https://doi.org/10.1038/s42003-025-08263-w
