Ketogenic diet increases mitochondria volume in the liver and skeletal muscle without altering oxidative stress markers in rats

Ketogenic diets (KD) consist of high fat, moderate protein and low carbohydrates. Studies have suggested that KD may influence oxidative stress by affecting mitochondrial quantity and/or quality, and perhaps lengthen lifespan. Therefore, we determined the effects of KD on multi-organ mitochondria vo...
