Fried foods leads to obesity in people with genetic risk
Should you avoid fried foods? You should read this study if you have genetic risk.

This research finds that people who are genetically susceptible to obesity and eat fried food frequently can have twice the effect on body mass index (BMI) than those with a lower genetic predisposition.
"This work provides formal proof of interaction between a combined genetic risk score and environment in obesity." Professor Alexandra Blakemore and Dr Jessica Buxton at Imperial College London

This study should serve as a reminder to those who have problems losing weight. Choosing good foods is important if you have fat genes. If you still insist on eating fried foods, then don't blame others when they call you names that you don't like.
