Experts from the University of Texas A & M came to the conclusion that the effectiveness of a particular diet depends on the genetics of a particular person. The work of scientists is published in the journal Genetics.

During the study, artificially derived lines of laboratory mice with four different genetic types received the four most common types of human nutrition: "western" (rich in fats and purified carbohydrates), ketogenic (high in fat, protein, and low? Carbohydrates), Mediterranean cereals and red wine extract), Japanese (rice and green tea extract).

Scientists have called a dangerous form of vegetarianism After six months of observation, scientists documented the different effects of diets on various genetic groups.

So, three groups of mice that consumed the Mediterranean diet turned out to be healthy, and in the fourth group it caused obesity and metabolic disorders. Rodents of one of the groups remained healthy, consuming all kinds of food except Japanese,? because of her in mice began to refuse the liver.

Worst of the others was reflected in all groups of mice American type of food. In two groups, the animals began obesity. Mice from other groups recorded an increase in the amount of fat in the liver.

According to scientists, the data obtained indicate that there is no universal diet suitable for everyone.

Earlier it was reported that Canadian doctors created a special diet for the prevention of cardiovascular disease and prolongation of life expectancy.
