Genetic Variants Tested

• Appetite Suppression — MC4R disrupts appetite suppression signaling.
• Food Disinhibition — NMB is associated with food disinhibition.
• Diet Impact and Satiety — FTO influences energy intake, diet impact, and feelings of fullness.
• Satiety Hormone Signaling — SH2B1 interrupts a satiety hormone signaling pathway.
• Exercise Motivation — BDNF influences motivation to exercise.
• Fat Metabolism — APOA2 alters saturated fat metabolism.
• Starch Processing — AMY1 reduces the ability to digest starch.
• Fatty Acid Uptake — FABP2 increases fatty acid absorption.
• Glucose Regulation — ADIPOQ disrupts normal glucose regulation.
• Response to Exercise — ADRB2 affects weight loss in response to exercise.
• Circadian Rhythm — CLOCK disrupts the normal circadian rhythm, which can affect metabolism and eating patterns.
