Bottom line: genetics don't really play a role in most health issues, including obesity. It's what is served every day at breakfast, lunch and dinner (and in between snacks). Introducing babies to veggies, beans, grains and fruit will develop their tastebuds for their entire lives. These are foods that can be eaten in large quantities without worrying about weight gain, especially if kids are active (and sedentary only to read books lol)! It's the family menu that determines obesity running in families, not genetics.
My mom gained a lot of weight while pregnant with me and i was a big baby and overweight as a kid. I took it into my own hands to start working out and eating healthy. Its never too late to change your health.
Families eat the same food.
I would think upbringing has a greater impact than the womb.
I in my early to mid 20s, 5' 5" anf 110 lbs. My babies were 9 lbs 2oz and 9lbs 12 oz. They aren in their 50s and still slim and healthy. Im 76, and also very healthy. Alwsys fed my children health hy food. Vould not breast-feed, however.
My mum, 4'9 and 70 lbs her whole life gave birth to three huge babies, me (4th child) being the only small baby. All but me, grew up obese. I was 90 lbs, had a normal sized baby (20 lbs) but she is a very large woman.
Go out and look around. The vast majority of people you see are obese or al least over weight.
People do not need to be fat shamed BUT being over weight is not healthy and leads to a host of illnesses.
When you look around you can see all the unhealthy people without taking a blood test or a fitness test
"NORMAL" for the average American is "UNHEALTHY" The health of society is in decline.
Surrogate mothers provide the mitochondrial DNA, which likely is the influencer of predisposition towards obesity.
Both of my children were born after a 110-pound weight loss due to gastric bypass. They both became obese. However, I was still obese at that point. It was many years before I understood nutrition. Thanks for the video.
I love this channel!
