“…It has been reported that during adipocyte formation (in utero and early infancy), exposure of animals to excessive n−6 fatty acids may promote fat deposition early in life ( Gibson et al, 2011 ). The n−6 to n−3 PUFA ratio is also associated with obesity in animals ( Su et al, 2020 ). In addition, many studies have shown that obesity and obesity-related diseases such as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease ( NAFLD ) are closely associated with a decrease in the biodiversity of intestinal microflora ( Arslan, 2014 ; Panasevich et al, 2016 ), and this association is also present in this study, that is, a reduction in the ɑ-biodiversity of intestinal microflora due to supplemented cholamine was associated with an increase in liver fat.…”
