Total body fat (subcutaneous + mesenteric + periovarian + perirenal fat pads) of mother rats after litters were weaned. Foster dams fed the high-fat (HF) diet had significantly heavier fat mass compared with the dams maintained on the low-fat (LF) diet (P < 0.001). There was no effect of the prenatal diet condition of the litter that the dam suckled during the lactation period. Bars marked with different letters are significantly different from each other (P < 0.05). Data are shown as means ± SE.
