Although your genes make you fat, you may lose weight: Many times we complain that we have bad genetics and makes us put on weight easily. As we look enviously at others who do nothing are kept in good shape. What can we do to combat our bad genetics? The Answers was given by Cambridge scientists, led by our friend Ruth, with whom we have published occasional research work.
Scientific study published in this month of August in a prestigious scientific journal, focuses on the FTO gene, which is the largest yet known in relation to obesity. According to the study, people with negative changes in the FTO gene have a higher rate of overweight and obese than people with the FTO gene in good condition. However, the study shows that people adversely affected by the FTO gene may achieve healthy weight levels through physical exercise.
In summary, the study shows that in people with altered genetic component that increases the risk of obesity, that sensitivity can be attenuated by physical exercise. So we have no more excuses, just which we have to exercise to make up our genes. Others, however, do not require much exercise to control weight.
