Obesity problems may skip a generation,
Edinburgh University study finds.
First, how relatively heavy a person is to
be classified as overweight or obesity? In general, the Body Mass Index, or
B.M.I., of 25 or higher is regarded as overweight and 30 or higher is obesity. A
new study finds that an obesity mother seems to impact not only on the birth
weight of her own children but also their children, meaning her grandchildren.
This means a grandchild of an obese mother could have higher risk of getting diabetes
as well.
Enjoy reading and learning about the cause,
inheritance and effect of obesity.
