Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to investigate the consequences of low dietary folate intake and the impact of the 677 C-->T methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) common mutation on liver function in obese adolescents. METHODS: Fifty-seven obese girls (BMI = 36.1 +/- 6.0 kg/m) aged 14.1 +/- 1.5 years were included before starting a weight reduction program. Dietary intakes for folate were...
