Genes that make you fat, but keep you healthy.

Journal of internal medicine - 1 Nov 2018

Loos R J F, Kilpeläinen T O

Abstract excerpt

Obesity prevalence continues to rise worldwide, posing a substantial burden on people's health. However, up to 45% of obese individuals do not suffer from cardiometabolic complications, also called the metabolically healthy obese (MHO). Concurrently, up to 30% of normal-weight individuals demonstrate cardiometabolic risk factors that are generally observed in obese individuals, the metabolically obese normal...
