Here is another newly-published article about a medical study which concluded that plus-size women are likely to live longer that waifs. The complete article has mixed-message content, but if you take the negativity out of the mix, you're left with some very good news. ................. Curvy Women 'Likely to Live Longer' By Nick Allen, PA Voluptuous women are healthier than their waif-like counterparts, scientific research said today. The ideal female form for a long life and healthy heart is the hour-glass shape exemplified by actresses Jennifer Lopez and Sophia Loren. A curvaceous, pear shape means a woman is more likely to have stores of adiponectin, a protein hormone which has anti-inflammatory effects and is associated with reduced risk of heart attacks. Danish scientists found the ideal measurements for a woman are at least size 14 with hips of 40 inches or more. |
