Genetic Contribution to Obesity Smaller Than Thought According to a New Study

The contribution of genetics to the development of obesity is smaller than previously thought, according to new research that puts the spotlight firmly back on lifestyle and diet. European researchers, led by Ruth Loos from Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge, UK, performed a genetic survey of over 20,000 people participating in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition.

“The obesity epidemic we are facing today unfolded over the past few decades and can clearly not be explained by changes in the frequency of risk alleles,” wrote Claude Bouchard the study author. “It is more likely due to changing social and physical environment that encourages consumption and discourages expenditure of energy, behaviors that are poorly compatible with the genome that we have inherited”. He added.

Best Wishes for Ultimate Health and Majestic Dreams!!!
