Genes and Athletic Potential
Genes express differentially under diverse conditions depending on physical activity and diet (mainly high-fat), and these two key factors influence obesity development and prognosis.1 Further, same diet, same work out may not fit all, and one can have wrong pattern of diet and exercises that may not be suitable to him or her for healthy weight as well as healthy lifestyle. Identifying such differentially expressed genes related to exercise and high-fat diet and their related pathways could suggest potential novel therapeutic approach for obesity treatments.1
