“…Weanling rats prefer foods that were consumed by their dam during lactation (Galef and Henderson, ; Capretta and Rawls, ). Additionally, it has been found that the level of protein selected by young rats is directly proportional to the protein content of the maternal diet (Leprohon and Anderson, ; Morris and Anderson, ). Finally, when investigating the acute effects of an experimental manipulation on diet choice, it should be noted that recent nutritional events can influence subsequent nutrient selection.…”

To address the question of how animals choose diets from an array of nutritionally different foods, researchers have designed experiments in which animals are provided with separate sources of the three macronutrients, protein, fat and carbohydrate. These experiments are useful for investigating the neuroanatomical and neurochemical mechanisms involved in food choice, as well as for assessing the effects of changes in physiological status (e.g., pregnancy; lactation and increased energy expenditure) or disease states (e.g., diabetes; and obesity) on nutrient intakes.

“…LeProphon and Anderson (1980) demonstrated that the quantity of protein selected by young rats of bath sexes was directly related ta the protein concentration of the maternai diet. Wistar dams were fed single diets containing 10, 20, 30 or 40% casein throughout gestation and lactation.…”
