Summary

This trial is testing whether a genetic score can predict how much weight and body fat people lose on a 12-week low-energy, high-protein diet. Obese adults aged 18-40 will follow a personalized diet plan and receive counseling, while researchers track changes in weight, body composition, and blood markers. The goal is to see if genetics can help tailor diet advice for better results.
