Genetics of Obesity

 

In 2001, six genes were connected to monogenic human weight and no normal variations were connected with polygenic weight. However genes do not always predict future health but genes and behaviour may both be needed for a person to be overweight. The % of obesity which can be attributed to genetics varies widely depending on the population .Genes can cause obesity disorders as Bardet-Biedl syndrome and Prader- willi syndrome. In some cases multiple genes may increase one’s susceptibility for obesity and require outside factors; such as abundant food supply or little physical activity. We propose an ignore of significant lessons gained from 15 years of research in the field of the hereditary qualities and weight.
