Father's Diet Before Conception Impacts Child Health

Abstract:

A study in Nature by Helmholtz Munich links fathers' bodyweight to their children's health, independent of genetics, maternal health, and environment. Lab tests in mice show high-fat diets before conception increase offspring's metabolic disease risk, but effects are reversible with a healthier diet before conception.
