We investigated the influence of maternal yellow-pea fiber supplementation in obese
pregnancies on offspring metabolic health in adulthood. Sixty newly-weaned female …

Diet influences critical periods of growth, including gestation and early development. We
hypothesized that a maternal/early life diet reflecting unprocessed dietary components …

Increased consumption of dietary pulse protein has been shown to assist in body weight
regulation and improve a range of metabolic health outcomes. We investigated if the …

Maternal overnutrition is associated with increased risk of metabolic disorders in the
offspring. This study tested the hypothesis that maternal green tea (GT) supplementation can …

Epidemiologic studies have reported relationships between maternal high folate and/or low
B12 status during pregnancy and greater adiposity and insulin resistance in children. The …

Scope Investigate the influence of low‐folate supply during pregnancy and lactation on
obesity and markers of the metabolic syndrome in offspring, and how provision of a high‐fat …

Background: The developmental origins of health and disease theory suggest that
disturbances in the fetal and early postnatal environment contribute to chronic adulthood …

Significant alterations in maternal nutrition may induce long‐term metabolic consequences
in offspring, in particular obesity and leptin and insulin resistance. Although maternal …

The adverse influence of maternal obesity on offspring metabolic health throughout the life-
course is a significant public health challenge with few effective interventions. We examined …

A maternal high-fat, high-sucrose (HFS) diet alters offspring glucose and lipid homoeostasis
through unknown mechanisms and may be modulated by folic acid. We investigated the …
