Effective diet plan by DNA test

A simple DNA test can predict whether a person more likely to lose weight on a low-fat or low carbohydrate diet.

The results of the study of small size of 101 women showed that the best diet for their genes lost two to three times more weight than the rest.
The results are presented at a meeting of the American Heart Association.
Experts said the findings coupled with previous studies, but more work should be done.
The emerging field of "nutrigenomics" look at how food interacts with genes.
It is known that people react to certain nutrients differently based on their genetic make-up.
Lactose intolerance, for example, is more common in African and Asian people of northern European origin.
This study examined how people and got away with different genes at different weight loss diet.
The researchers, from Stanford University, analyzed data from 101 white Caucasian women who provided a DNA swab from their cheek cells.
The women had different diets for years. The diets were very low carb, low carbohydrate / high protein and low fat or very low.
The researchers divided the group into three genotypes, which they have described as a response to low-carbohydrate diet, diet low in fat and a balanced diet responsive genotype susceptible.
They found that a diet similar to their genotype lost 2-3 times heavier than 12 months compared to those of the 'wrong' food.
The researchers said their findings are preliminary and need much more confirmation before it can be used for commercial purposes.
British experts said that the study had looked at a very small number of people and it is unclear which genes were involved.
Professor Christine Williams, University of Reading, said: "This is a very interesting study - very small."
He said it would be helpful to a better understanding of what genes are involved to obtain.
"It fits pretty well with some of our studies show that some genotypes more than others react to certain types of fat, as diets high in omega-3 fatty acids.
