Genetically higher insulin levels - How to make the most of it
Recently I took part in a medical study which was researching into how small genetic changes can affect the way fat cells work within the body, specifically to if a genetic variant of higher insulin levels results in a higher proportion of visceral fat.
After hitting them with a freedom of information request I discovered that I was one of the rare proportion of people who have this genetic trait.
Sorry for the stupid question, but basically how do I use this information?
I am currently on a major weight loss spree after realising I had become obese. That is about the time I joined this forum and am making good progress and am back to a normal weight, with the intention of continuing to getting myself fit and muscular, and not make the same mistakes again.
With the information that I have this genetic variant is there anything I should be doing differently, how should I use it to my advantage, and what should I avoid.
