Genes are like a hand of poker. You can’t do anything about the cards you have, but you can choose how to play them 👌🏼 Very interesting zoom lecture tonight on the genetics of obesity by @GilesYeo. Thank you @lshanahan03 for the link/invite 😊

Great webinar today on Ultra Processed Foods #UPFs 🍕🍩🍟🍰 @ECOGobesity

Loved hearing about Chile’s nutrient profile modelling - I wonder if the UK will ever do something similar?
