Genes versus environment. The relationship between dietary fat and total and central abdominal fat.

Diabetes care - 1 Dec 1998

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The influence of diet on body fat has not been quantified independently of genetic influences, although both are held to contribute to regulation of body fat stores. This study examined 1) the relationship between recent diet and total body and central abdominal fat in middle-aged female twins independent of genetic and important environmental factors and 2) evidence of interaction between diet and...
