genes

I’ve got some good news and some bad news

So which one do you want first?

Well, because I can’t hear your answer, I’ll just pick one, shall I?

I’ll pick the bad news first.

Did you know you inherited a huge bunch of genes from your parents? Oh, you did? Ok. Then you also know that some of those genes might not be too crash hot.

Let’s say that they’ve passed on the VERY frustrating genes of creating high cholesterol or heart disease even by you eating boiled chicken breast and lettuce leaves. Or a tendency to get type 2 diabetes even if you never go near a pink donut….or to gain body fat by simply walking past a delicatessen? Like I used to.
