Comparison of increment of body mass index (BMI) with age between −13,910*T carriers in males and females. There is a significant difference in BMI between inferred lactase persistent (LP) (T allele carriers: TT and CT) and inferred non–lactase persistent males (LNP) C allele homozygotes (CC). This trend remains significant adjusting for age, milk consumption, ancestry, wealth, inbreeding, and relatedness. However, there is no significant difference in BMI between inferred LP and non‐LP females [Color figure can be viewed at wileyonlinelibrary.com]
