The prevalence of obesity has reached epidemic proportions, predisposing to the development of type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and cancer. Lifestyle and genetic heritability are causes of this phenomenon, together with the nutritional environment during intra-uterine life and birth weight. We examine the above mentioned relationships in the family tree of a patient with diabetes, central obesity and cardiovascular disease.
