Does anyone have any thoughts on this research? Does it seem founded or is it just a new obesity excuse??

    Sure, that stuff's been found in many studies now. Not new really.

    It just means that some people can have it potentially harder to lose weight and keep it off.

    But folks that get low blood sugar real easy and therefore always hungry have it harder too.

    Some people have thyroid issues and have it harder.

    Some people have constant stress in their lives for their responsibilities and cortisol is always at high levels encouraging fat storage.

    All reasons some may have it harder than others for a specific thing.

    Here's a bigger series of articles for everything you wanted to know but were afraid to ask. like repair of Leptin resistance.
