“If some environmental variables manifest themselves only on certain genotypes, efforts to prevent obesity at a public health level can be focused on recognition and counseling of susceptible individuals. In addition, appreciating the importance of genetic variation as an underlying cause helps to dispel the notion that obesity represents an individual defect in behavior with no biological basis and provides a starting point for efforts to identify the genes involved.”
Gregory S. Barash, I. Sadaf Farooqi and Stephen O'Rahilly Nature 2000;404:644-651

About Weight Management

Learn more about the health risks of excess weight.

Obesity and excess weight are a global concern, affecting an estimated 60 million Americans and 100 million individuals worldwide.1 Both are considered major factors in contributing to numerous diseases and health disorders, including blood pressure, blood sugar, heart, cerebro-vascular, gall bladder, cholesterol, joint and cartilage, sleep and immune problems.*

According to leading researchers at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital, about 90% of people who diet gain every pound back that they lose regardless of their weight-loss method. Some evidence suggests that every person has an inherited weight range that varies by only about 10% either up or down from some set point. (For instance, a man whose "genetically-determined" weight is 200 pounds would tend to swing from 180 to 220 pounds, but would be unlikely to lose or gain more than this.) Genetic factors that influence fat metabolism and regulate certain hormones and proteins that affect appetite may play some part in 70% to 80% of obesity cases.2

Understand the causes of excess weight and obesity.

According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website (www.cdc.gov) the following factors contribute significantly to excess weight and obesity:
  • Genetics and metabolism
  • Environment, behavior, culture and socioeconomic status
  • Energy imbalance—eating more calories than you burn

Take a new approach to weight management.

If you are overweight, chances are a combination of all the factors listed above contributes to your weight issues. Prior to GenoTrim™, you couldn't do anything about the genetic contributors to weight gain and retention, leaving behavior modification, diet and exercise as your only options for weight loss.

The ingredients in GenoTrim™ are clinically proven to address specific genetic and physiological imbalances. Together with diet, exercise, and your doctor's supervision, they could help you make significant and lasting changes in your health that you have not been able to achieve until now.* Get your GenoTrim™ today!
