This application relates to methods and tests that allow for the establishment of personalized weight-loss programs for a subject based upon the subject's metabolic genotype in key metabolic genes. Kits and methods are disclosed for determining a subject's metabolic genotype, which may be used to select an appropriate therapeutic/dietary regimen or lifestyle recommendation based upon the likelihood of a subject's responsiveness to certain diets and activity levels. Such a personalized weight-loss program will have obvious benefits (e.g., yield better results in terms of weight loss and weight maintenance) over traditional weight-loss programs that do not take into account genetic information.

La présente invention concerne des procédés et des essais qui permettent létablissement de programmes de perte de poids personnalisés pour un sujet sur la base du génotype métabolique du sujet dans des gènes métaboliques clés. La présente invention concerne en outre des kits et des procédés pour déterminer le génotype métabolique dun sujet, qui peuvent être utilisés pour sélectionner un régime thérapeutique/alimentaire approprié ou des recommandations de style de vie sur la base de la probabilité de la réponse dun sujet à certain régimes et niveaux dactivité. Un tel programme de perte de poids personnalisé présentera des avantages évidents (par exemple, obtenir de meilleurs résultats en terme de perte de poids et de stabilisation du poids) par rapport à des programmes de perte de poids traditionnels qui ne tiennent pas compte dinformations génétiques.
