Genetic susceptibility testing and readiness to control weight: Results from a randomized controlled trial.

Obesity (Silver Spring, Md.) - 1 Feb 2015

Meisel Susanne F, Beeken Rebecca J, van Jaarsveld Cornelia H M, Wardle Jane

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To test the hypothesis that adding obesity gene feedback (FTO) to simple weight control advice at a life stage with raised risk of weight gain (university) increases readiness to control weight. METHODS: Individually randomized controlled trial comparing the effect of: (i) simple weight control advice plus FTO feedback (FA) and (ii) simple weight control advice only (AO) on readiness to engage with...
