17. OBESITY What questions can be answered by a genetic analysis? EXERCISE Eating less EXERCISE Eating less ? EXERCISE Eating less EXERCISE Eating less EXERCISE Eating less

18. OBESITY Sport Eating less Sport Eating less ? EXERCISE Eating less Sport Eating less Sport Eating less MOST EFFECTIVE 133 kcal/day -717 kcal/day What questions can be answered by a genetic analysis?

19. OBESITY What questions can be answered by a genetic analysis? EXERCISE EATING LESS 133 kcal/day -717 kcal/day LOW FAT LOW CARB BALANCED, LESS FAT BALANCED, LESS CARBS BALANCED ?

20. OBESITY EXERCISE Eating less 133 kcal/Day -717 kcal/Day LOW FAT LOW CARB BALANCED, LOW FAT BALANCED, LOW CARB BALANCED ? MOST EFFECTIVE 48% Carb 32% FAT 20% PROT What questions can be answered by a genetic analysis?

21. OBESITY Comparison: Genetics vs. Standard weight loss Exercise is very effective Eating less is less effective Carbohydrate sensitive Genetic predisposition A little sport Intense calory reduction Low-Fat diet Lots of Exercise Little calory reduction Low-Carb Diet -5kg -12.5kg ? 2.5 times more successful >> without genetic testing with genetic testing

22. GENETIC ANALYSIS The 8 Genes Responsible

23. GENETIC ANALYSIS Which statements can be made based on genetic analyses?

24. GENETIC ANALYSIS Which statements can be made based on genetic analyses?

25. GENETIC ANALYSIS Which statements can be made based on genetic analyses?

26. GENETIC ANALYSIS The Program 1)Weight loss phase (lose weight) 2)Adaptation phase (slowly increase calories) 3)Stability phase (maintain weight)

27. GENETIC ANALYSIS Flexible Diet Plan The article system Rice pudding (High carb, Low fat) Bacon (Low carb, High fat)

29. GENETIC ANALYSIS How can you plan your diet? Option 1: The Food Item System – Compose your own menu (relatively complex) (very flexible) (very effective)

30. GENETIC ANALYSIS Flexible Diet Plan The food item system

31. GENETIC ANALYSIS Flexible Diet Plan If a food item has the wrong distribution, reduce the amount If a food item has the right distribution, increase the amount

32. GENETIC ANALYSIS Flexible Diet Plan Overall, the correct distribution Example of food item recommendation

33. GENETIC ANALYSIS Flexible Diet Plan 15 food items allowed

34. GENETIC ANALYSIS Flexible Diet Plan 15 food items allowed 1x chicken 3x buns 2x tomatoes = 6 Food Items

35. GENETIC ANALYSIS Flexible Diet Plan Example: 5 meals per day Breakfast 4 Food Items Snack 1 Food Item Lunch 5 Food Items Snack 1 Food Item Dinner 4 Food Items Example: 3 meals per day Breakfast 5 Food Items Lunch 5 Food Items Dinner5 Food Items = 15 Food Items

36. GENETIC ANALYSIS Flexible Diet Plan The Food Item system

38. GENETIC ANALYSIS How can you plan your diet? Option 1: The Food Item System – Compose your own menu (relatively complex) (very flexible) (very effective) Option 2: Pay attention to the red and green bars (very easy) (very flexible) (moderately effective)

39. GENETIC ANALYSIS How can we use this knowledge? More than 1000 food types are rated according to the genes Promotes obesity, avoid! Promotes optimal body weight, enjoy!

40. GENETIC ANALYSIS How can we use this knowledge? Avoid the foods marked with red bars, focus on the foods marked with green bars
