Experimental models with rodents show that obese mice exposed to the hyperlipidic diet did not return to body weight and adiposity similar to that of animals even after 8 weeks of return of the consumption of standard normocaloric ration (SC). This metabolic "memory" is also characterized by persistent increase in leptinemia and accumulation of fat in the liver. On the other hand, recentl…
