Metabolic imprinting in obesity.

Forum of nutrition - 1 Jan 2010

Sullivan E L, Grove K L

Abstract excerpt

Increasing evidence indicates that early metabolic programming contributes to escalating obesity rates in children and adults. Metabolic imprinting is involved in the establishment of set points for physiologic and metabolic responses in adulthood. Evidence from epidemiological studies and animal models indicates that maternal health and nutritional status during gestation and lactation have long-term effects on...
