EVALUATION OF GENES PON1 AND FTO POLYMORPHISMS IN CHILDREN WITH OVERWEIGHT AND OBESITY

It is advisable to consider the presence of AA in FTO and MM in PON1 genotype in the genome of an additional risk factor for weight gain, which is phenotypically can not be realized with appropriate behavior skills that will help to maintain health (correct nutrition, active living). Therefore, PON1 and FTO gene polymorphism in the genome of a child is one of factors in predicting the risk of obesity, especially among children with low levels of physical activity and bad eating habits, as well as different disharmonious physical development due to overweight.
