Maternal Obesity, Metabolic Health, and Prenatal Programming of Offspring Obesity
Children born to overweight and obese women, as compared to those of normal weight women, have greater risk for becoming obese themselves and suffering comorbid metabolic health problems. Evidence is accumulating that this increased susceptibility is at least partially attributed to a prenatal programming effect, whereby obesogenic factors in the intrauterine environment alter fetal development...
متن کاملResolved: there is sufficient scientific evidence that decreasing sugar-sweetened beverage consumption will reduce the prevalence of obesity and obesity-related diseases.
Sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) are the single largest source of added sugar and the top source of energy intake in the U.S. diet. In this review, we evaluate whether there is sufficient scientific evidence that decreasing SSB consumption will reduce the prevalence of obesity and its related diseases. Because prospective cohort studies address dietary determinants of long-term weight gain and ...
متن کاملEpigenetic programming of obesity and diabetes by in utero exposure to gestational diabetes mellitus.
It is now well accepted that offspring exposed to maternal undernutrition, obesity, or gestational diabetes mellitus have an increased risk for chronic diseases later in life, supporting the theory of the early origins of chronic diseases. However, the molecular mechanisms through which the exposure to an altered in utero environment translates into the development of chronic diseases are not y...
متن کاملDietary Proteins, Developmental Programming, and Potential Implication in Maternal Obesity
Background: Proteins are known mainly based on their metabolic and nutritional functions including protein synthesis and a source of energy. In spite of various physiological properties attributed to proteins, their functions have neither been addressed by assessing quality of proteins nor by nutrition and dietetic practices. Methods: Studies were included if they were randomized animal studies...
متن کاملLeukotriene Production Is Increased in Abdominal Obesity
Obesity is a major risk factor for insulin resistance and type-2 diabetes. A chronic low grade inflammatory state has been described during obesity and associated with insulin resistance pathogenesis. Results from animal studies are in favor of a role of the leukotriene (LT) pathway in obesity induced-insulin resistance. However, there is a paucity of data regarding this association in human ob...
