Abstrakt: Ketogenic diets (KDs) are very high in fat and low in carbohydrates. Evidence supports that KDs improve glucose metabolism in humans and rodents that are obese and/or insulin resistant. Conversely, findings in healthy rodents suggest that KDs may impair glucose homeostasis. In addition, most experimental KDs are composed of saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids, with almost no omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LCPUFA). Evidence supports a beneficial role for n-3 LCPUFA on glucose homeostasis in the context of a metabolic challenge. To our knowledge, no study has examined whether the inclusion of n-3 LCPUFA affects the impact of a KD on glucose homeostasis. The objective of this study was to examine the impact of a KD on whole body glucose tolerance and skeletal muscle insulin response in rats and to determine if increasing the n-3 LCPUFA content in a KD with menhaden oil could improve metabolic outcomes. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were pair-fed one of a low-fat diet, high-fat diet, KD, or a KD supplemented with menhaden oil for 8 wk. No significant differences in whole body glucose tolerance, skeletal muscle insulin signaling, or skeletal muscle insulin-stimulated glucose uptake were detected between the dietary groups. Our findings suggest that KD feeding, with or without supplementation of n-3 LCPUFA, does not affect whole body glucose homeostasis or skeletal muscle insulin response under pair-feeding conditions. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Ketogenic diets (KDs) improve glucose metabolism in humans and rodents that are insulin resistant, but their impact is unclear in a healthy context. Furthermore, standard KDs typically lack beneficial omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n3-LCPUFA). This study assessed whether supplementing a KD with n3-LCPUFA could alter glucose homeostasis or skeletal muscle insulin response. No differences were observed between a standard KD and a KD with n3-LCPUFA when energy intake was controlled.
