Among the many risk factors for osteoarthritis (OA), obesity and metabolic syndrome
(MetS) are increasing in importance with societal escalation in sedentary lifestyles
and consumption of unhealthy Western diets
1
,2
. There is a bidirectional relationship between obesity/MetS and OA
3
, while the increased OA risk associated with obesity/MetS can also be transmitted
intergenerationally through epigenetic modification
