Abstract excerpt

Background: Numerous gene variants are linked to an individual's propensity to become overweight or obese. A commonly studied gene variant is the FTO single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs9939609. The FTO risk (A/-) allele associated with this SNP is linked with increased body fat percentage, body mass, BMI, and other lifestyle factors that may perpetuate an individual's risk for obesity. This study investigated...
