Speakman J et al.(2008) Thrifty vs Drifty Gene Theory of Obesity Thrifty genes for obesity, an attractive but flawed idea, and an alternative perspective: the 'drifty gene' hypothesis Int J Obesity 32:1611–7 The discussion of thrifty genes and drifty genes, on obesity and diabetes. Suggestion made that the case for Thrifty genes may not be correct, but rather a different hypothesis is proposed

Marchand L (2002) The Pima Indians: Pathfinders for health, Obesity and Diabetes, Online resource: [1] NIDDK research conducted on the Pima Indians for the past 30 years has helped scientists prove that obesity is a major risk factor in the development of diabetes. One-half of adult Pima Indians have diabetes and 95% of those with diabetes are overweight. Scientists use the "thrifty gene" theory proposed in 1962 by geneticist James Neel to help explain why many Pima Indians are overweight
