Gene Responsible for Converting Carbs into Fat

Apparently most of us aren’t lucky enough to have a faulty gene when it comes to the gene that is responsible for us converting all our leftover carbohydrates into fat.  If we did all have the disabled version of this gene, we’d probably all be really thin, and able to pack in as many noodles, breads and pretzels as we wanted without all the fat storing up in our thighs, bellies, upper arms and other undesirable areas that we’ve identified all too well.

This lovely gene that we could all do without I’m sure is called the DNA-PK gene, and in research studies when this gene was made faulty, the mice who were studied with the disabled gene type were able to eat all the carbs they wanted without gaining any weight.  Their counterparts who had the gene intact on the other hand, gained weight in leaps and bounds when fed a diet rich in carbohydrates, just like the majority of us human folk do

Now, does this mean that there may be some sort of gene therapy that can help us to make sure we don’t gain weight from eating carbs and automatically store it as fat on our problem areas?  There may very well be something on the horizon to that effect, but time will tell.  It’s such a thin line with things like this, because you don’t want to mess with mother nature too much, it seems there’s always some sort of consequence to pay for that when we come out with new so called “miracle drugs” or therapies, and there are almost always side effects to any type of weight loss medication on the market.

The best bet for now is to try out a self hypnosis program for weight loss.  With this, you will be able to correct the root of your weight problem which begins with your subconscious conditioning and self imposed doubts about your abilities to lose weight and maintain a successful weight loss goal.  Hypnosis has worked for me and gotten me through spells when I gained a few pounds, effortlessly taking them off by using the power of the subconscious to tame my body and bend it to my will, which is ultimately to become the healthiest, most fit and fat free person I can be.
