Women With Big Bums Are Smarter And Healthier, Says Science

There’s more to big bums than meets the eye. Okay, so you’re probably thinking about bits of the bum that are hard to see (don’t worry, I am too), but according to recent studies, a sizeable derriere may signal a bigger brain.

Scientists from the University of Oxford say it’s been proven that people who have more weight in their thighs and backsides often have a higher level of intelligence. One stated reason is women with larger than average backsides produce more Omega 3 fats, which mobilise brain development, says science.

The researchers even go as far as to say “children born to women with wider hips are intellectually superior to the children of slimmer, less curvy mothers,” according to ABC News.

Beyond mental fitness, a big booty also offers other health advantages. Women with this body feature tend to have lower cholesterol levels and produce sugar metabolising hormones that help to ward off diabetes and heart problems.

Having a big butt also favours leptin levels in the female body, which is a hormone responsible for regulating the weight, and the dinopectina, a hormone with anti-inflammatory, vascular-protective and anti-diabetic attributes.

Similar studies conducted by universities in California

and Pittsburgh discovered that women with bigger butts, wide hips and smaller waists may even live longer as well.

Experts have been unclear on whether lower region shapeliness is healthier than being thin, but they did indicate that those who are thin have no health advantages over those his carry weight in their lower body.

So there you have it. If you have a big butt, be happy; that thang is really working out for you.
