The Interaction between Coffee: Caffeine Consumption UCP2 Gene Variation and Adiposity in Adults—A Cross-Sectional Study

摘要

Background Coffee is suggested as an alternative option for weight loss but the relationship between coffee consumption and adiposity in population-based studies is still controversial. Therefore, this study was aimed at evaluating the relationship between coffee intake and adiposity in adults and to test whether uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) gene variation was able to affect this relationship.
