They isolated a really neat gene that allows you to eat whatever you want and not gain any weight.
There is an Italian Villa of about 200 people who eat like typical italians(lots of sausage, pasta, meats; basically lots of greesy fatty foods most love to eat but are not allowed to) and 99% of the town is not over weight. The town was real small and rual, if you are born there you stay there.
Scientist started to study this town, and traced back a few houndred years to an ancestor of the majority of this small town who had a mutated gene. This gene basically breaks down all fatty materials and it just goes through you without having your body absorb any extra fats.
It was a cool study I had to learn about it in human evolution back in college.

I... agree... that IS untolerable.

Translate that.
Anyway, that kid will have serious troubles later, if not soon, in life. Too much muscle growth is very bad... I see him dying at a very early age. You can only pump so much blood to so many areas... his heart's going to fail.

Doing these same studies doctors have also found other drugs like Lithium.

Most likely. Myostatin has a purpose, like most our genetics. Myostatin regulates how much muscle you can have, so you dont end up with more than your frame, and heart and other organs can handle. So what you end up with a more efficient body.
This kid will have problems later on.

Ironic that while studying these studies, I found mind altering drugs a great way to relax and a good way to forget what I had just studied.
Hmm, I must get back to my crack pipe and atempt to figure out the universe, of which I think I just found the nexus of.
