How convenient.
Those genetic "variations" occured when??
Before X-Box and Doritos and Soda Pop?
The risk for young children becoming Obese is easy to see. They don't go outside and run around, ride bikes, and play anymore..
Give the Genetics a rest already.
Its not anyones fault, Its a Blameless society where nobody takes action/responsibility for their self or children anymore..
I don't see kids in Africa having an Obesity problem.
