[Solved] Risk of Obesity

Discussion: Reducing the Risk of Obesity Students, Have you read about the study that was reported earlier this year about genetics and predisposition for childhood obesity? Vanderbilt University stated that a molecular marker in the saliva is associated with the emergence of childhood obesity in a group of preschool-aged Hispanic children. They tested children that were overweight and then followed them for years. Even with behavioral interventions, 30% of the children became obese and these were the children of women who had the particular molecular marker in their saliva. I think it is an interesting study suggesting that genetics are a significant factor in the development of childhood obesity. MacMillan, L. (2020 Mar 5).
