Stress preferentially increases the consumption of high-fat foods in women, suggesting the interaction of these two factors may disproportionately predispose women toward excess weight gain. In the present study, female rats were exposed to a chronic high-fat or chow diet and were exposed to 4 weeks of chronic variable stress (CVS) or served as home cage controls. Control females exposed to a high-fat diet displayed many symptoms of the metabolic syndrome including increased body weight gain, total and visceral adiposity and insulin and leptin concentrations relative to all groups. However, CVS-high fat, CVS-chow and control chow groups had similar body weight gain and caloric efficiency. This finding suggests that CVS increases energy expenditure much more in females exposed to a high-fat diet relative to those fed a standard chow diet. The CVS-high fat group had increased adiposity and increased circulating leptin and insulin concentrations, despite the fact that their body weight did not differ from controls. As the effect of stress interacts with high-fat consumption in determining body weight, our results underscore the importance of assessing the degree of adiposity, rather than body weight alone, as an index of overall metabolic health. Overall, the data indicate that in female rats, chronic stress prevents high-fat diet related increases in body weight, but does not prevent high-fat diet induced increases in adiposity when compared to chow-fed females.
