FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)


Are there any specific genes that have been identified to affect individual responses to caloric restriction diets?

Yes, several genes have been identified to impact how individuals respond to caloric restriction diets. For example, the FTO gene is associated with obesity and may influence weight loss outcomes during caloric restriction. Additionally, the APOE gene has been linked to cholesterol metabolism and may affect responses to caloric restriction in terms of cardiovascular health.
