Body composition at age 9 years, maternal folate intake during pregnancy and methyltetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T genotype.

The British journal of nutrition - 1 Aug 2009

Lewis Sarah J, Leary Sam, Davey Smith George, Ness Andy

Abstract excerpt

Nutrition during pregnancy and in early life may influence developmental plasticity and alter susceptibility to obesity and adult disease. One mechanism by which this could occur is through epigenetic changes, such as changes in methylation levels, which modify gene expression patterns. Folate in...
