Biljana Mihailovic has lost 18 pounds on the “DNA diet,” a diet developed for her after a nutritional genetic test. She learned that her “optimal foods” are spinach, broccoli, citrus fruits, and whole grains.
Wonder if anyone’s DNA test results determined their optimal foods to be fried chicken, cheesecake, and nachos?

Hmmm… call me skeptical, but does it really take a fancy DNA workup to determine that a healthy diet consists of vitamin-packed vegetables and whole grains?
I think mine is French bread, chocolate and Taco-flavored Doritos.
Actually, it can’t be, or I still wouldn’t have these last pounds to lose!
A new, DNA-based diet that recommends vegetables and whole grains? Revolutionary!
That said, I would like to blame my DNA on craving fried chicken fortnightly….
river2sea72: Apparently it does.
Kerri: For a sec, I thought you said chocolate flavored Doritos. Where can I buy me some, I immediately wondered.
lisalee: Didn’t you know we were in the middle of a genome revolution?!
