Some severely obese people are missing a set of genes, a new study has found.

Researchers have found a small proportion of obese people are born without 30 or so of the estimated 30,000 genes in the human genome.

This deletion was not found in any subjects of normal weight, the team from Imperial College London and their colleagues in Europe, the United States and Montreal reported in Wednesday's issue of the journal Nature.



Makes you think if its the food that's causing it to be gone.

This is very interesting. I am forever frustrated that my brother eats 2 times more than me and he is a thin man. I eat half his servings and I'm 100 lbs overweight and I walk 6 miles a day at work.

I think it has got to do something with genes. A mutation, virus, or hidden genetic code.

I long for a shot or a pill that will make obese people normal.

I eat a lot.... and I'm small. I don't know how I do it. I just say it's metabolism.
