'Obesity Gene' Doesn't Affect Ability to Lose Weight
WEDNESDAY, Sept. 21, 2016 (HealthDay News) -- Having the so-called "obesity gene" doesn't affect people's ability to shed pounds through diet, exercise and weight-loss medications, a new study suggests.People with the FTO gene respond to these weight-loss strategies as well as those without the gene, British researchers report.The findings suggest that a person's environment may play a bigger part in weight management than their DNA.

(Newser) – Carriers of a specific form of the FTO gene, known as the "obesity gene," are 70% more likely to be obese, tend to have a bigger appetite, and weigh an average of 6.6 pounds more than non-carriers.But, a new study finds, carrying the gene does not cause a person to be unable to lose weight."You can no longer blame your genes," says the lead researcher in a press release.
