Fascinating Facts About Fat
关于肥胖不可思议的真相
Body mass index has been widely used to measure body fat.
身体质量指数被广泛地用来衡量身体脂肪 。
But it doesn't take proportions into consideration.
但是却没有将脂肪占身体的比例考虑在内 。
So someone with a lot of muscle and low fat could have high BMI.
所以,有一些肌肉发达,而脂肪较少的人BMI数值也比较高 。
The creator of BMI was not even a doctor.
BMI的创始人甚至根本就不是一名医生 。
He was a mathematician who developed the measurement for governmental pruposes.
他是一位数学家,出于政府管理目的,他开发出了这个测量标准 。
So it can be considered an irrelevant equation.
所以,这个指数应该说是不恰当的 。
The idea of targeting specific areas for weight loss is a myth.
针对特定的部位进行减肥的想法也是谬论 。
Weight loss is actually distributed proportionately.
减肥实际上是按照比例进行的 。
So a workout anywhere is a workout everywhere.
所以,任何部位的锻炼对全身的锻炼都有效 。
One reason that obesity has increased is the recent frequency of calorie-rich processed foods.
肥胖率逐渐增高的一个原因就是食用热量丰富的加工食品 。
But genetics also play an important role.
但是基因也发挥着重要作用 。
Recent research shows more than 140 possible genetic locations that may contribute to weight.
最新研究表明,可能有超过140多个遗传位置与体重有关 。
If caloric intake remains the same,there is no difference(in terms of weight loss)between a high fat and low fat diet.
如果热量摄入量相同,低脂肪和高脂肪饮食没有什么区别 。
So eat what you want in moderation.
所以,想吃什么就吃什么,适量就可以了 。
When you gain weight,you grow new fat cells.
当你体重增加的时候,脂肪细胞会生长 。
But when you lose weight,they just shrink and can always grow again.
但是当你减肥的时候,脂肪细胞只是缩小,以后还是会长回来 。
