DNA test can predict the best diet
A simple DNA test can predict who will benefit from a more low-fat or a low-carb diet. This shows a small study from Stanford University, among 101 women.
The researchers shared after DNA testing of saliva on the women into three groups: low-carb diet, low fat diet and a diet of healthy food.
All subjects tried for years to lose weight through various diets.
The women who followed their ideal diet, during the study were two to three times as much weight lost in one year than women who were not matched according to their genotype.

It has long been known that genes predict how people can tolerate food. Milk allergy is more common example among Asian and African people than in Northern Europeans.
The results were presented at the meeting of the American Heart Association.
