Yes, I do believe that genetics play a part in your weight!. I have a sister that when she was born had extra fat cells and the doc told my mom that she would always have trouble with her weight and she always has!. And her little girl is the same way!. I think genetics factor in how your metabolism works, your thyroids, and even pschycological factors like a person that is a comfort eater!. Im not saying its all due to genetics because a lot of it is choice to!. Because we choose what kinds of foods we eat and how much we excersize!. But some people gain weight easier than others and some people lose weight easier than others and thats the part thats genetic!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think that Genetics does have to do with your weight!. You get certain traits from your family and grand parents and so on such as eye color hair color and such!. So i think that if your parents are overweight then you have a higher chance of becoming overweight!. I think that if your parents are skinny people then you will be skinney unless you just eat alot or something like that!. Hope this helps!

I dont think it does, I'm sure it does!. Scientists ahve been doing a lot of research into obesity in recent years and they have identified an obesity gene, the amount of brown adipose tissue people have is often hereditary and also the scientists have identified other genetic factors that predispose people to gaining weight!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

genetics only plays a part!. the diet of the individual and the lifestyle plays a much bigger role as they effect the epigenomes of that individual!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
