Fast Food Changes Your DNA

When you eat a steady diet of fatty fast foods, it does more than strain your blue jeans. According to scientists at Sweden’s Karolinska Institute, eating a fatty diet actually changes genes by altering the function of DNA in cells that help control insulin. And that, they conjecture, may lead to type 2 diabetes. The newly discovered chain reaction leads to only one conclusion: Reduce your fat intake, particularly of saturated and trans fats.
