Study found that the fullness of the hips and thighs of women could build a lot of fat, these fats which contain Omega-3 fatty acids may be more, that unsaturated fatty acids for fetal brain development during pregnancy is very important.
Waist fat contains Omega-6 fatty acids, fatty acids for fetal brain development, and waist fat may also cause diabetes and heart disease.
A new study shows that the United States has abundant buttocks slender waist of the "hourglass" shaped figure in women than in "apple" shaped body and the "bucket" shaped body of the women are more intelligent, often a child born to a higher IQ. Scientists think that might be a "hourglass" shaped body of the female buttocks have more Omega-3 fatty acids. The study was published in the recent "Evolution and Human Behavior," journal.
Waist-hip ratio of 0.6 - 0.7 the best?
Previous research found that male "inherently" like those hip and waist circumference differ to a great woman. Although there are many theories think that women get pregnant, easy to produce and long life, but no one can explain why good men like fat women.
Today, the University of Pittsburgh and the University of California, Santa Barbara researchers conducted the new study provides a possible answer. According to reports, the researchers collected a total of 16,000 women and girls related data, including measurements of their size and cognitive test scores.
Study found large differences in waist and hip circumference in women in the test scored significantly higher than waist and hip little difference in women. In addition, their children also achieved higher test scores. These women are not very thin, the key is their waist is much smaller than the hips, waist and hip ratio of 0.6 to 0.7.
The researchers believe that the fullness of the hips and thighs of women could build a lot of fat, and there does not contain Omega-3 fatty acids may be more, that unsaturated fatty acids for fetal brain development during pregnancy is very important.
"Curves" a physical advantage
In contrast, waist fat contains Omega-6 fatty acids, fatty acids for fetal brain development. Waist fat may also cause diabetes and heart disease. The thin women and the "bucket" shaped women lack certain types of fat.
The researchers said this made it from another point of view explains why wealthy men like curves of the female body. The study men like women with curves provide a physiological basis.
Reported that if the study is true, then there are curves of voluptuous Italian actress Sophia Loren is not only the same good looks, she has the possibility of a higher IQ. The tall thin Hollywood actress Nicole Kidman narrow the lack of essential fatty acids.
Although these theories yet to be confirmed, but the psychologist Paula Hall said: "This study shows that women are more sexy, intelligent, good women that figure in addition to raising children, may also be good at other things." Physiology expert Harry Dr. Witschel, said: "So far, we can say that a good body of women in Western societies have an advantage, its essence is that they physically have an advantage."
The lack of teenage mother fatty acids
Study might explain why those teenage children born to young mothers in lower scores on cognitive tests, because the young mother may not have saved enough enough good fatty acids.
Scientists believe that children born to young mothers is reduced cognitive development, and with those who have children later than women, their own cognitive development is impaired. Research shows that young mother who gave birth to a better body of the child is not the phenomenon, their cognitive performance is not bad.
