Genomic analysis of diet composition finds novel loci and associations with health and lifestyle

2018-08-02

Abstract excerpt

We conducted genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analyses of relative caloric intake from fat, protein, carbohydrates and sugar in over 235,000 individuals. We identified 21 approximately independent lead SNPs. Relative protein intake exhibits the strongest relationships with poor health, including positive genetic associations with obesity, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease ( r g ≈ 0.15 – 0.5). Relative...
