“The number one cause of obesity is genetics. That is, if you were born to parents who have obesity, you have a fifty to eighty percent likelihood of having the disease yourself, even with optimal diet, exercise, sleep management, stress management.”

In the reaction shots, Stahl looks like she’s sucking on a lemon hearing this.

1. Based on the table, we are already up to 45%. Thus 45% for the children of the obese would suggest little genetic effect. The 50-80% for the children of the obese would be a moderate effect.

2. I don’t know what to make of Stahl’s overacting.
