Summary
This study looked at how a low-calorie diet changes the activity of two genes (SIRT1 and leptin receptor) in white blood cells of 60 adults who are overweight and have high triglycerides. Researchers measured these gene changes along with blood fats, hormones, and inflammation markers. The goal was to understand why some people lose more weight than others on the same diet.
