Abstract

Maternal nutrition is considered as a critical factor in current scenario, since it affects both the mother as well as the developing fetus and thus in- take of a balanced diet is very important. However, the sedentary lifestyle and the Western influence have led to the higher calorie (especially from fats) intake which in turn has increased the risk of fetus in developing a range of metabolic disorders during childhood as well as its adulthood. Hence, in this study dyslipidemia (hyperlipidemia) was induced in rats by feeding them with a high fat diet which was confirmed by the bio-markers such as serum cholesterol, triglycerides and free fatty acids followed by the study of the beneficial effects of omega-3 fatty acids.
