Flaxseed effects on cardiac remodeling in male offspring of diabetic rats were investigated.
Maternal intake of flaxseed oil reduced blood pressure, caused by maternal hyperglycemia.
Maternal use of flaxseed flour protected the stress of high blood pressure in left ventricle wall.
A lower collagen infiltration into left ventricle was found in flaxseed groups.
Programming with flaxseed decreased cardiac remodeling in offspring adulthood.
