Document Summary
Good relationship between bmi percentage and fat (11,12) Bmi->one of the criticisms is that it doesn"t consider body building (20) Fat around the abdomen is more hazardous to your health. There are some people that can have a lower bmi but still be obese (25) Men have more than twice as much fat than women around the gut (30) Intra-abdominal (visceral fat) is the dangerous fat=> fat surrounding the organs. One option is the sucking the fat out through liposuction (39, 40) Muscle tissues are all electrically active that takes energy (42) Hunger and satiety: when do you feel full, don"t memorize 17 hormones (44) Set point theory of fat regulation: kleiber"s law=linear relation between body weight and energy expenditure (45) Obese people have more firmicutes, lean people have more bacteriadotes. People who don"t even meet each other influence each other"s body fat (59)
