The BDNF Val66Met polymorphism is associated with lower BMI, lower postprandial glucose levels and elevated carbohydrate intake in children and adolescents

The amino acid‐changing exonic variant rs6265 (Val66Met polymorphism) in the brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has been linked to obesity in several genotype–phenotype association studies.
