Got a big butt and thighs is more blessed than negative effects. Excess fat in the area is not harmful but actually beneficial heart.
Recent studies have shown that fat in the buttocks and thighs can actually reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke and diabetes.
This is based on the results of a study conducted by researchers from the Mayo Clinic, in Rochester, Minnesota. In this study, researchers studied 28 men and women who eat a lot during the 8 weeks to see how the work in the body fat in these participants.
The researchers measured the participants' body fat before and after the study. On average, participants had an estimated 2.5 kg fat in the upper body such as stomach and 1.5 kg of fat in your lower body like the buttocks and thighs.
Apparently there is a difference between the cells contained fat around the abdomen and fat around the thighs and buttocks.
Easily accumulate fat in the abdominal area, but fat is not synthesized into proteins, so the result can be harmful to the heart and other internal organs.
In contrast, the fat in the buttocks and thighs instead many are synthesized into proteins that can protect the body and prevent various diseases.
"With these findings, we are looking at increasing capacity to produce fat cells of the body at the bottom, namely the buttocks and thighs, in order to form the body's protection and help prevent disease," said Dr. Michael Jensen of mayoclinic, as reported from Dailymail , on Wednesday (10/06/2010).
Dr. Jensen explained that the mechanism is different from fat in the abdominal fat at lower body. "Different mechanisms will certainly provide a different impact," said Dr. Jensen further.
Recent findings have been published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences may help explain the benefits of a pear-shaped body.
Hip size can be a good indicator to determine the likelihood of heart disease and other diseases, and also to manage a healthy weight.
Another study by Danish researchers also showed data that 3,000 men and women with thigh circumference 23.6 inches (60 cm) had a lower risk of heart disease.
In the future, is expected to have drugs that can affect how fat is stored around the body and can be used to combat heart disease and other diseases.
