laziness is inherited

Lazy are born, not made, and a chronic reluctance to do anything conditionally prirodoy.K ​​This is the conclusion of the University of California (USA) after eksperimanta with laboratory mice.

Biologists have brought four "rocks" rodents with increased activity, four with reduced activity, and analyzed the behavior of their offspring.

Cubs are more active parents have retained activity, and little mice of the second group were less "work". Scientists believe that based on these data, we can say with confidence that the activity peredaetsya genetically.

Professor Theodore Garland (Theodore Garland) and his colleagues believe that their discovery is of great importance to human health. "People are leading a sedentary lifestyle, can be treated with drugs that act on genes that are responsible for physical activity.

Drug treatment in the future can make sporting activities is much more enjoyable. Besides, with the help of treatment will be put off by immobilized lifestyle "," scientists hope.
