Response to Vigorous Exercise Aids Those With Obesity- Related Gene

I read an article from Google News that refers to a new study that says if people who suffer from obesity exercise, they might reduce the risk of being obese. Basically, obesity is a genetic mutation that gets passed down from generation to generation in ones family, making it more likely for people to become extremely overweight. I think that this is great news for people who have a history of obesity in their family, because it gives them hope that they can reduce their weight and increase their physical fitness. People who are obese due to their genetic makeup can effectively manage their weight. The study reinforces the belief that people can do almost anything if they try hard enough. I believe that the good news is that the hard work people invest in achieving and maintaining a lifestyle of wellness will result in positive outcomes.
