Is obesity in our genes? Study strengthens genetic link to body size 

Justin Bowling yea theres a reason why calorie dense food taste good. We have needed it for most of history

Fasting is very common. Over a billion people do it.

I intermittent fasting a lot.

Sugar , carb and caffeine spike insulin which if overconsumed causes the body to crave more of it. The ketogenic diet ( low carb if you like for kids ) cures this epidemic.

@@liveforchrist1474 That makes sense. But we all eat the same food so there has to be more to it than that.

@@liveforchrist1474 Meta-analysis destroyed your claim since patients in a lot of studies lost weight with bread, refined sugar and corn syrup in their diet. According to these studies : being in a Caloric deficit, eating enough proteins and fibers are the main keys. You can lose fat with any diet : keto, carnivore, etc.

Just eat healthy food for God's sake

Thank you for your perspective. I have a keen interest in this subject as I am addicted to fitness/sports science and recently read a book which says "blaming obesity on the individuals is a poor point of a view" and the basic premise of the book is that it is mainly genetic and very hard to "fix". I want to ask you, after you lost weight did you find it hard to maintain your new weight and lifestyle/nutrition?

@@tamimhusain3376 It's not the easiest route. Losing weight isn't easy. Keeping the weight down is even harder and you need help. The hardest part is eating the right food (cut the sugar as much as you can) and sleeping (resting enough). But, where did you find those studies? Most serious studies linked common specific causes to obesity. Genes are there, but it's not the main cause. Why? The obesity rates went from less than 3% to 42% in less than 75 years. Genes aren't changing that fast. But, society had changed.

No, but now that we have so many unhealthy lifestyle options readily available, people who are genetically predisposed to obesity will have a harder time losing weight. People who have genetic traits that cause a tendency to overeat or store fat are able to eat low quality food to their heart’s content at a low cost.

@@agees924 genetics have very little to do with obesity. it's a cultural phenomenon. if you're great grand mother ate like shit, she will most likely raise your mother to eat like shit, then raising you to eat like shit. it's all nurture. why is it humans are the only mammals on earth that somehow ends obese, it's we choose to over eat.

@@leslie7872 I eat way cleaner than my brother and my many other people I know limit my sugar and I still outweigh most of them. Those genetics are definitely important and can't be overlooked.

Yes evolution in humans has stopped because every problem that we have we just solve with another kind of technology

Nope a lot of people in jail are fat because the food is pork and other undesirable meals. Our bodies all work differently some prisoners are buff because they exercise all day. Anyways what you eat is very important and how much and when you eat also plays apart.

Read Dr.Atkins book titled Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution. He explains ketosis and low carb dieting very thoroughly in this book, it's so easy to understand. Its the book my dad followed to loose 275 lb in a year and 2 months. He kept with low carb eating, he ate all the meat and fat he wanted and got healthy. He started with zero carbs and no caffeine for a week to get the body into the state of ketosis. He used Keto Sticks they are urine test strips. After the first week he gradually added more carbs but not exceeding 40 grams of carbs per day through out his weight loss journey. If the body is in the state of ketosis it can not store fat it can only shed fat and other toxic weight so he ate all the fat and calories he wanted to keep himself satisfied while ketosing. There is no need to count calories as long as you are keeping your carb intake low enough to keep you ketosing. Forty grams of carbs per day is a recommended limit to keep the body in the state of ketosis. If you have a cheat day or cheat meal your body may stop ketosing because of overconsumption of carbs so all you have to do after a cheat day is start over by eating zero carbs and no caffeine for a week to get yourself back into a nice deep ketosis. Caffeine spikes insulin thus slowing weighloss so some people restrict it completely even after the first week to avoid slowed weightloss. Eating fat , especially rich animal fats , while ketosing causes the body to ketose more heavily, provides energy, satisfies appetite healthily, lubricates intestines , eyes and skin and is crucial for organ function including the brain. Animal meats should not be restricted either they are too important for replenishing the muscles and organs. Also, no colon cleansers are needed on a diet that causes the body to ketose, in fact it can be detrimental. I made that mistake and almost killed my kidneys it hurt so bad so I quit colon cleansers while keto dieting and I felt so much better. Ketosis causes the body to naturally cleanse itself including the colon. The body works hard enough while ketosing to shed weight on its own. There are veggies allowed in the first week about 1 cup per day they are practically zero carb. They are listed in Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution book. He also wrote a book giving carb count content of many foods to help you stay on track. I've read both of these books. Keto Sticks are urine test strips. Test every day. If your test shows pink/purple color it means you're ketosing. The darker the pink/purple color means the heavier you're ketosing meaning the faster you are loosing weight. If your test shows no pink/purple color it means you are not ketosing not loosing weight but gaining weight so you have to keep eating zero carbs and no caffeine until pink/purple color shows on your test. Eating practically zero carbs for a week should get your body into deep ketosis. Sorry to repeat myself but I hope this info helps people loose weight fast like my dad did. I don't rely on the Atkins foods for weightloss though because I don't like the sweeteners and other ingredients in alot of them. I mostly eat meat, fat, low carb veggies and low carb fruit ,nuts not so many cashews, unlimited butter, full fat sour cream and mayo. I pray you understand it completely in Jesus' name. God's blessings to ya!

@@liveforchrist1474 Everybody is different I limit my dairy and carbs usually just protein shakes and vegetables mostly.

It's a metabolic condition but also a phenotype to my understanding.

its eating too much and not doing shit all day, ->its your fault

None. It causes deseases, it's not one. It's just that people don't know when to put the fork down. Calorie deficit

It's a problem off society. (fast food & Co.)

And wealth

They changed their habits. Sadly, as we grow older, we tend to eat more, be more sedentary, sleep less. The CDC came with those conclusions.

Many studies concluded that many factors weighed (no pun intended) in the current obesity crisis we are witnessing. Those studies determined there are 7 causes whom lead to obesity (eating habits, exercising, genetics, sleep, etc.). But, genes isn't the sole problem here. Which explains why the obesity rate went from less than 3% to 42% in the USA in less than 75 years. According to the CDC, the average population is sleeping less, eating more and moving less... Having good or bad genes won't help you in those cases. You will gain weight if you're in a 1000 calories surplus.

If she ate the same amount of calories as her husband, it's normal she would be obese. Females ate fewer calories than males in the wild amongst mammals. The muscle mass and the bone density isn't the same for a man or a woman. Simple biology.

@@liveforchrist1474 bruh that’s a bit too long

Really wish people would get that but fat bigotry is acceptable in our society and in many others as well. It is so ingrained in us to see fat as something completely controllable yet any study coming out contradicting their biases against fat people makes them angry as you can see in these comments No one cares about fat people's health. They just want a punching bag that they can bully without impunity, so now that people are becoming more aware of fat bigotry, discrimination etc and that more studies are coming out showing that obesity has biological factors like genetics, they are afraid of losing their societal punching bag, like other groups in the past were.

Always. But, being obese is a common problem for a lot of illnesses. At a certain point, we can't argue.

Nobody chooses to be obese, I'm so tired of people saying that. Who would choose to be obese? Its like saying a person chooses to be a drug addict or be gay. The way you people say it in you're tone is lie these people line up to be that way.

@@sammyhiggs4202 except as a former drug addict, I can say I chose to do drugs. Just like fat people chose to eat too much and not exercise.

Shut up idiot

Agree, fat people are weak-minded

@Gen X Power Bobby no, it's pretty much all a choice unless you're getting forcefed like ducks in France. It's stupid to think it's not. It's literally excess energy, and that doesn't just appear out of nowhere.

Timmy J so easy to comment right and how did u state that? R u a scientist? Have u lived in a body that stored fat even while eating salads? Nope u just commented.. ignorance

שחר א. I didnt comment to make you understand anyway

Combo.

It's genetic idiot

One of these days we are going to realise it's more about harmones and genes. I used to be just like you when I was younger. Fat people eat to much and move to little. Calories in calories out. I got older and realized weight loss is a bitch now. I walk 5 to 6 miles 7 days a week, cycle, 1.5 hour workout 3x a week and have not had a cheat meal in 3 months. On my workout days I do about 4 hours total of weightlifting and cardio. I managed to drop about 8 pounds in that period eating home cooked lean cuts of meat and veg only. I come to find out today my testosterone levels are borderline clinically low and my thyroid levels are just on the line of normal so docs wont touch it. Its ridiculous. A hair lower and my doc said they would treat me. We can blame the insurance companies for that one. 10 years back I worked out with some guys who did 0 cardio and consumed 4k to 5k calories a day. We did the same workout and I was doing cardio. They managed to stay insanely lean despite their caloric intake. Never lost their abs and very vascular. Fast forward ten years. They all have guts and manboobs now from their years of steroid abuse and I can promise you they are not eating 5k calories a day anymore. So were they burning 3k calories in the gym? No. They were not even that big. Muscle burns maybe 10 to 20 calories extra per pound so that's not what's burning 3k calories extra a day either. Their harmones made it so their caloric partitioning favored muscle gain much more than it did fat. Now that their harmones are jacked up like mine and I never took anything they all have guts and manboobs. But 10 years ago they were shredded eating garbage diets and twice as much.

I didnt drink soda for 7 years and I eat veggies and am fat, so fuck you.

@@Lifehaks1 Too bad for you I eat burrito,soda and apple juice daily but still is skinny.
