BELLY FAT GOOD FOR THE BRAIN
A new study published in the journal GeroScience reveals that belly fat – the deep fat surrounding your internal organs – plays a role in maintaining brain health. The study claims the fat uses a chemical messaging system that helps brain cells grow, survive, and form new connections. The more of this you have, the better your brain functions. But as you age, your levels naturally drop, and that’s when memory problems can start.
* If belly fat helps your brain, then I’m an elucidating dilettante.
* I’ve got enough to power two brains and a microwave.
* Unfortunately, the brain cells belly fat helps grow are used to find more snacks.
* It’s good for the brain, not so much for the furniture.
