Inositol and choline levels in the diet and neutral lipid hepatic content of lactating rat.
During lactation a methionine supplemented low protein diet or a sufficient protein diet containing 40% of fructose induced an important hepatic lipidosis. Inositol supplementation, but not choline supplementation, strongly reduced, in the case of a low protein diet, and suppressed, in the case of a sufficient protein diet, this lipidosis.
