Effects of diet and breeding treatments on body weight in female rats.

Group Weight (g)
Virgin – Normal DHA 300 ± 7
Virgin – Decreased DHA 318 ± 6
Parous – Normal DHA 323 ± 6
Parous – Decreased DHA 334 ± 11*

Data are presented as the mean ± SEM (n = 15 per group). Body weight was determined at the completion of the diet and breeding treatments immediately prior to euthanasia, and is representative of those obtained from each of the four cohorts of rats used in these studies.
