Anyone who has ever tried to get rid of a few extra kilos knows the frustration: the weight drops initially, only to be back within a matter of weeks—the yo-yo effect has struck. Researchers at ETH ...

Researchers have discovered a mechanism behind the yo-yo effect: fat cells have a memory that is based on epigenetics.

A kind of memory of obesity may be retained by fat tissues even after weight loss, increasing the chance of some people ...
