Genetic variation plays a big role in every individual's body weight and ability to lose weight. This variation can affect everything from how much you snack, to exercise motivation and metabolic circadian rhythm. The DNA Weight Loss Test identifies variants in the following genes.
- Snacking - MC4R
- Food disinhibition - NMB
- Hunger - FTO
- Satiety - SH2B1
- Exercise motivation - BDNF
- BMI and physical exercise - FTO
- Fat breakdown in response to exercise - ADRB2
- Sensitivity to saturated fats - APOA2
- Fatty acid uptake - FABP2
- Starch digestion - AMY1
- Adiponectin levels - ADIPOQ
- Metabolic circadian rhythm - CLOCK
