Physical activity may inhibits the effect of the gene responsible for obesity
A new study finds that people can genetically at risk for obesity reduce the risk of weight gain through the keep physical activity.
The Web site, "de Health News" that the U.S. international research team that conducted the study found that a gene (FTO) raised it to the known risk of obesity, its impact will be lower by 27% in adults physically active than non-active.
The scientists analyzed the data of 45 previous studies involving more than 218 thousand people.
The researcher responsible for the study "is important to stress that you do not run in the marathon or participate in a sports club, but take the dog for a walk or go to work using a bike, or climb the stairs (about an hour of activity per day) will have an impact that we saw in our study. "
They hoped that contribute to such studies to convince people that, even in the case of a genetic effect, the healthy lifestyle will help prevent weight gain.
According to Center for Disease Control and control over America's Two-thirds of Americans suffer from either overweight or obese, in addition to the nearly five children until the age of 19 years.
