Low and high protein levels during pregnancy affect maternal body mass and composition as well as offspring birth weight in a porcine model

Abstract: It is now increasingly recognized that exposure to an imbalanced nutrition both in utero and in early postnatal life are related to a higher propensity to become obese in later life. This phenomenon is known as the Hales and Barker's ‘thrifty phenotype’ hypothesis. Less is however known about the underlying alterations of maternal body mass (BM) development and metabolic conditions.
