According to scientists, 80% of a person's weight gain comes from genetics and 20% comes from the person's environment. Today, more than 130 genes allows people to change extra fat into heat instead of storing the fat in the body. Another gene family may affect how quickly yhe stomach lets the brain know that it is full. If the passage of this information slows down, people may eat more than they really need; their appetite becomes larger then others.
Different people use different amounts of energy when they are resting and just beathing. In an experiment, researchers measured the energy a person used for breathing only. Some people burned about 1,000 calories for breathing per day while others burned up to 3,000 calories. Those people who burn fewer calories doing normal work or exercise have a slower metabolism and turn out to gain more weight.
In addition to genes, a person's envitonment has something to do with being fat or thin. Exercisr is an efficient way to lose weight. One researcher in Canada found that most people in a group of 47 showed improvement building muscles in only three weeks of workouts.
