I asked this back in PR but somehow forgot to chase up an answer - do you mean one set, i.e. just two individuals were shown to be affected, or do you mean one trial involving multiple sets of twins? Am curious because if it was the former then it proves/suggests nothing at all...

Sorry if I didn't answer you in PR! It was in one set of twins - inconclusive in iteself, though interesting; and in the context of multiple studies on the correlation between food and behaviour, one would think that more such twin studies would be funded. Sadly, as Dr Gesch pointed out, though many studies have been carried out, virtually none have been funded for follow-up.
