The team found that people with two copies of these particular variants - one in over 1,000 people in the UK - were on average 2.5 kg lighter than people without the variants and had a 50 per cent lower risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease. 5.5 pounds doesn't seem to be enough to reduce disease risk by 50%. Maybe this gene has a direct impact on the heart and blood sugar with weight loss just being a side effect.

5.5 pounds doesn't seem to be enough to reduce disease risk by 50%. That's what I put on every Winter, and shed by May, so I guess it's a wash.
