Weight Loss Fat Burners High Levels of Physical Activity Can Blunt…Obesity Gene

High levels of physical activity can help to counteract a gene that normally causes people to gain weight, according to a new study by researchers at the University of Maryland School of Medicine says ScienceDaily. They analyzed gene variants… found that the obesity-related FTO gene had no effect on individuals who were the most physically active.

“Our results strongly suggest that the increased risk of obesity due to genetic susceptibility can be blunted through physical activity,” the authors conclude. “These findings emphasize the important role of physical activity in public health efforts to combat obesity, particularly in genetically susceptible individuals.”

Soren Snitker, M.D., Ph.D., says, “Our study shows that a high level of physical activity can ‘level the playing field,’ equalizing the risk of obesity between those who have copies of the FTO gene variant and those who don’t.”

“Some of the genes shown to cause obesity in our modern environment may not have had this effect a few centuries ago when most people’s lives were similar to that of present-day Amish farmers,” he says. He adds that environmental and lifestyle factors, such as a high-fat diet and lack of exercise, also may serve as triggers for obesity in genetically susceptible people.
