Study finds six new gene mutations linked to obesity

More bad news for fat people waiting for a genetic "cure" for their caloric irresponsibility.

"Researchers have identified six new gene mutations linked to obesity and said on Sunday they point to ways the brain and nervous system control eating and metabolism."

Though judging by the misinformation presented by the researchers, you would think this is a victory:

"'Today's findings are a major step forward in understanding how the human body regulates weight,' Dr. Alan Guttmacher, Acting director of the National Human Genome Research Institute, said in a statement."

Clearly, this Gut-maker guy is FOS.

It is "a major step forward in understanding how" little we know about how "the human body regulates weight."

They just found six more.

A while back they found: genes affecting the effectiveness of the malpractice known as diet drugs, a bunch of "obesity genes," "networks of genes behind obesity", and on and on and on and on.

It is and will be never-ending, which means never "solved" during our lifetimes by any other means than controlling Calories in vs. Calories out.

"'This study essentially doubles in one fell swoop the number of known and replicated genetic factors contributing to obesity as a public health problem,' added Dr. Kari Stefansson, Chief Executive Officer of deCODE Genetics of Iceland and one of the researchers."

And another study will double these and the next will double all of them and more studies will keep doubling them and then they will have to figure out how all these many factors allegedly linked to obesity interact and...

And they will never do it.

(Perhaps these researchers are young adults, as they are clearly mentally ill.)

But even if they do, supposing I am wrong, then they will have to find ways to treat each variation. And then treat the side effects.

Fortunately, right now there is a 100% safe and effective treatment that costs less money, in fact saves money.

It is consuming fewer Calories than you burn.

Try it.
