Maternal metabolism during gestation may depend on nutrient intake but also on polymorphism of genes encoding enzymes involved in metabolism of different nutrients. Data on choline or carnitine metabolism in pregnant women are scarce. We hypothesized that (1) choline intake in Polish pregnant women is inadequate and (2) choline and carnitine metabolism would differ by genotype and nutritional status of pregnant...
