Effects of cafeteria diet on histological-morphometrical in epididymal adipose tissue. Images of hematoxylin and eosin (a); cros-sectional area (μm) (b); diameter (μm) (c); perimeter (μm) (d) in the adipose tissue of mice fed the standard diet (STA), the cafeteria diet with distilled water (CAF + WD), the cafeteria diet with vitamin C (CAF + Vit C), the cafeteria diet with industrial acerola juice (CAF + IND), the cafeteria diet with the juice of unripe acerolas (CAF + UNR) or the cafeteria diet with the juice of ripe acerola (CAF + RIP). The results are expressed as means ± SEM (n = 6 per group). $p < 0.05 versus standard diet.
