When we hear the word FAT, we have been upskilled to think of a horizontally enlarged sluggish human. We link fat with obesity, heart diseases, other lifestyle diseases and presume that FAT IS OUR KILLER But is fat really our killer? Or we\u2019ve been wrong the whole time, hating our boon companion??<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p dir=\"ltr\">Evolution has given the word FAT furthermore significance and an in- depth interpretation. Learning evolution or observing nature or even the mere observance of man will acknowledge the fact that big and strong beings survive for longer periods. There are over 6000 species of mammals in the world. Amongst the mammals, the mighty blue whale is known to survive the longest. Considering the amphibians, tortoises are found to have a longer life but the gigantic tortoise has outnumbered the others in life expectancy.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-daddbb1 cmsmasters-block-default cmsmasters-sticky-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"daddbb1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.17.0 - 01-11-2023 *\/\n.elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=\".svg\"]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block}<\/style>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"560\" src=\"https:\/\/gastrogutexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/survivalfattest02-30x30.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-32111 cmsmasters_img cmsmasters-lazyload lazyload\" alt=\"\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-ls-sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" data-src=\"https:\/\/gastrogutexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/survivalfattest02.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/gastrogutexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/survivalfattest02.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/gastrogutexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/survivalfattest02-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gastrogutexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/survivalfattest02-768x430.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gastrogutexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/survivalfattest02-536x300.jpg 536w, https:\/\/gastrogutexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/survivalfattest02-600x336.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gastrogutexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/survivalfattest02-30x16.jpg 30w, https:\/\/gastrogutexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/survivalfattest02-18x10.jpg 18w\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gastrogutexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/survivalfattest02-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gastrogutexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/survivalfattest02-768x430.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gastrogutexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/survivalfattest02-536x300.jpg 536w, https:\/\/gastrogutexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/survivalfattest02-600x336.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gastrogutexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/survivalfattest02-30x16.jpg 30w, https:\/\/gastrogutexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/survivalfattest02-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/gastrogutexperts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/survivalfattest02.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-85d40ff cmsmasters-block-default cmsmasters-sticky-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"85d40ff\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">EVOLUTION AND FAT<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7a69864 cmsmasters-block-default cmsmasters-sticky-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7a69864\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Traversing evolution makes one an avid server. Another classical example is the largest living animal on land, the Mighty Elephant which has a lifespan of 60-70 years whereas, the rat lives for 1\u00bd years only. From these observations, we can analyse that \u201cINCREASE IN SIZE LEADS TO INCREASE IN LIFESPAN\u201d and by increase in size, it means the increased fat content in the body. Fat percentage in our body determines our lifespan. Interpreting the chart given above, the most fascinating example is of the human female holding 30% of fat. Men are more muscular than women but women have more fat content in their body hence. survive longer.<\/p><p>The lion is a ferocious muscular animal but contains only 1% of fat in its body and lives about 12 years only. The musculature of any mammal is closely compared to a furnace. The big muscles are much larger furnaces that eliminate too much waste leading to increase in the oxidative stress and free radical generation.<\/p><p>This eventually speeds up the ageing process. 59% increase in the life span of the human female is due to the decrease in musculature and the increase in the fat percentage.<\/p><p>Another striking example are the primates Human beings belong to the class of primates. Totally there are 400 species of primates and amongst them only humans have 20% fat content in their body. Nature has endowed monkeys with 1-3 % fat and more musculature so that they can swing. from one branch to the other in search of food.<\/p><p>Men don\u2019t have to swing around hence they are enriched with more fat content. leading to increased lifespan of 60 years considering that a monkey will live only up to 30 years.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a88bcca cmsmasters-block-default cmsmasters-sticky-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"a88bcca\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">FAT DISTRIBUTION AND DISEASES<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dcc5921 cmsmasters-block-default cmsmasters-sticky-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"dcc5921\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Amongst 6000 mammals on earth, humans are ranked THIRD considering their fat percentage. African hunter gatherer women with increased fat percentage show a mighty decrease in various lifestyle disorders. This concept of \u201cFAT FOR PREVENTION OF DISEASES\u201d, is to be thoroughiy considered. Fat is not a bad thing but the DISTRIBUTION of fat is important.<\/p><p>Gynoid obesity is characterized by fat around hips, thighs, buttocks and breasts giving a PEAR shaped appearance whereas Android obesity is denoted by distribution of adipose tissue around trunk, upper body, abdomen, chest, shoulder and nape of neck resulting in an APPLE shaped appearance. In women, distribution of fat in the buttocks, thighs and breasts are for a purpose -Nutrition for the baby. Hence termed as REPRODUCTIVE FAT. The adipose distribution of the buttocks, thighs and breasts of a human female contains tons of polyunsaturated fatty acids which are crucial for the growth and development of the foetal brain which weighs approximately 1.5 kg.<\/p><p>But modern food habits are changing the fat distribution sites. Increased grain and refined food intake cause accumulation of fat in the tummy region (CENTRAL OBESITY). This fat is termed as VISCERAL FAT (fat surrounding the organs like pancreas, liver, ovary) that can kill us rapidly. All the lifestyle related disorders arise from this disproportion in the adipose arrangement of the body.<\/p><p>FAT is commonly feared by everyone. But Good Fat and its correct distribution in the body will prevent all lifestyle diseases and promote good health, nutrition and longer lifespan. Therefore, it is the SURVIVAL OF THE FATTEST and not the survival of the fittest.<\/p><p>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0-DR.MERLYN BIJU KONIKARA<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-710aed4 elementor-section-full_width elementor-hidden-widescreen elementor-hidden-desktop elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-mobile elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default cmsmasters-block-default\" data-id=\"710aed4\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-6558927\" data-id=\"6558927\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-114dc60 cmsmasters-block-default cmsmasters-sticky-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"114dc60\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3><span style=\"color: #ffffff\"> Also listen my podcast on<\/span> <span style=\"color: #BED173\">Spotify<\/span> <span style=\"color: #ffffff\">&amp;<\/span> <span style=\"color: #BED173\">Youtube Music<\/span><\/h3>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fafbab1 cmsmasters-block-default cmsmasters-sticky-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"fafbab1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tIf you do want to support the show, enjoy an extra warm feeling inside when you listen knowing you\u2019ve help keep.
