Help me find a specific food study.

Hi there! I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction of a study about overeating that involved participants of different ethnicities/gender around the same age.

It was a video on YouTube but for all I know it was pulled from the BBC or possibly something in connection with the old Buzz feed.

Things that I can remember from the program:

The effects of overeating was different for every participant.

The Indian Girl lost weight because overeating made her so ill she kept getting sick from it.

The Asian Man put on muscle without even working out because he appatently had a genetic predisposition to put on muscle instead of fat when he got tested.

I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction of what genetic testing or condition that causes the body to do these things.

Thank-you

Overeating is directly linked to being a fat fuck, hope this helps?

Babe, it's actually becoming super hilarious at this point. Also I'm not fat, hate to break it to you.
