Genetics at Play

Genetics play a fascinating role in this whole ball game.

Some gene variants may cause someone to have more grehlin making them a ‘hungry person’ (me! I am a hungry person!)

Another gene variant might make someone more prone to addiction. (Transfer addiction after surgery is something all patients need to know about.)

Yet another reminder that weight management is far more than just eating less and working out harder.

Genetics is not destiny. It is fascinating to think about, but does not call the shots or have the final say.
