Biological regulatory mechanisms account for three-quarters of the biological variance in susceptibility and resistance to fat gain with human over-feeding.
This knowledge can inform approaches to manage weight gain during over-feeding.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
There are also biological regulatory mechanisms that enable us to account for three-quarters of the biological variance in susceptibility and resistance to fat gain with human over-feeding.
Why this rating
The abstract presents a strong claim regarding biological variance.
