Yes,you read that right,people with big butts (think Fat Bottomed Girls by Queen) have a greater chance of longevity. Oddly enough once you hear about it it makes sense. When the fat is in the gluteofemoral region it reduces the risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Belly fat can wrap around the organs and release fatty acids that cause inflammation where butt and thigh fat is distributed under the skin and acts like a sponge to soak up fatty acids plus thigh fat can be beneficial to metabolism and lower blood pressure. So my next thought is does that explain people getting butt fat added by artificial means?
