　　A new study from the University of Tokyo in Japan found that adult puppies born from experimental mice that were malnourished in the laboratory are more susceptible to hypertension when they are young. This is related to the increase in stress hormones caused by insufficient nutrition. The research team believes that this study is also a warning to humans.

　　According to the Yomiuri Shimbun website in Japan, the Tokyo University research team provided pregnant female mice with a low-protein diet and gave birth to lighter puppies. Most of these puppies become obese as adults. , And suffer from high blood pressure. Studies have shown that when the mother’s mice are undernourished, the child is exposed to high-stress hormones before birth, which affects the function of genes related to the child’s brain and is more likely to suffer from high blood pressure.

　　In Japan, approximately 9.5% of low birth weight babies weigh less than 2.5 kg at birth. Professor Hideo Fukuoka of Fukuoka Medical University reported that many Japanese women prefer lightweight newborns, so pregnant women strictly control their weight and warn pregnant women of the risk of excessive weight control.
