Very cool stuff !!

So what is the answer to manage the expression of this gene?? Fasting ?? |
It's not clear to me if they mean eating too much specifically triggers the gene in question or if the above quote of theirs is just another example of the common but misguided belief that people get obese because they just eat too much, when the truth is so much more physiologically complex, as the discovery of this gene is evidence of.

My take is how they have it backwards: we know inflammation, overweight, and high processed carb intake all go together, but I swear so many have a mental block about that.

Important point. If these were simply treated as symptoms of an overall cause (Insulin Resistance and Metabolic Syndrome are the likeliest candidates), treatment options would be clearer and with that clarity, more targeted to address the root cause. |
To me, eating too much of the wrong foods is what creates an immune response. For me, those are grains, legumes & dairy. Miniscule amounts of those foods still caused inflammation. I've never gotten inflamed from eating too much beef. While still eating dairy, and only 1200 cals/day I always retained 15 lbs of inflammation.
