The mice always get the latest although sometimes not greatest breakthrough for their health.  Some scientists have discovered a way to engineer mice that constantly have a high metabolism.  Apparently there’s an enzyme that controls the storage of fat in our bodies.  In these engineered mice, the ACC enzyme was reduced which resulted in the mice not gaining any weight even on high-fat diets.  I wonder if most Asian people have a low amount of the ACC enzyme because I usually don’t see very many obese Asians.
