Mais ce n’est pas tout puisque les femmes aux fesses charnues seraient également plus résistantes au diabète et aux maladies cardio-vasculaires. Cela s’expliquerait par leur faible taux de cholestérol qui permettrait de produire des hormones pour métaboliser le sucre.

En fait, tout le monde recopie l’un de ces deux articles de janvier et octobre 2010.
A Big Butt Is A Healthy Butt : Women With Big Butts Are Smarter And Healthier | Elite Daily

Scientists from the University of Oxford have discovered that women with larger than average butts are not only increasingly intelligent but also very resistant to chronic illnesses.
According to ABC News, the results found that women with bigger backsides tend to have lower levels of cholesterol and are more likely to produce hormones to metabolize sugar. Therefore, women with big butts are less likely to have diabetes or heart problems.
And having a big butt requires an excess of Omega 3 fats, which have been proven to catalyze brain development. The researchers also found that the children born to women with wider hips are intellectually superior to the children of slimmer, less curvy mothers.

Does More Butt And Thigh Fat Make You Healthier ? - ABC News

“If you’re going to have fat, you’re definitely better off if you’ve got some fat in the lower body,” said Dr. Michael Jensen, director of endocrine research at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. “If you look at people who have primarily the pear shape, they’re healthy in all the ways that this fat behaves. It’s not just less heart attacks or less diabetes, it’s all these ways we think about fat as an important organ for our health.”
For years, researchers have looked into the idea that not all fat is created equal. People who carry their fat in their stomachs, also known as “apple-shaped” people, are said to have more problems from obesity than those who carry their fat in their hips
Il semble d’ailleurs que tous les commentaires de ce genre sont faits par des personnes sans lien avec l’étude initiale (et ne l’ayant sans doute pas lue).

Women With Large Posteriors Live Longer ? Or Is Medical Reporting Nonsense ? | William M. Briggs

Finally discovered the lead author: Professor Konstantinos Manolopoulos, University of Oxford. To PubMed, where I discovered the paper “ Gluteofemoral body fat as a determinant of metabolic health ” in the International Journal of Obesity from, yes, 2010. June. ▻http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20065965
(…)
Manolopoulos’s paper was not a meta-analysis. There are, mercifully, no statistics presented. The current work was instead a leisurely chat about the 21 papers he had read and what he thought about them. Nothing in the world wrong with that.
What did he say about the papers in his sample which had findings in different directions? What about the extreme heterogeneity of his literature sampling? Well, I guess he’s saving that discussion for another paper (researchers can’t have too many).
His mild conclusion, which did not match the breathlessness of the news reports, nor did it contain as many goodies (like increased intelligence or longer lives), was that “Body fat distribution is a major determinant of metabolic health and gluteofemoral adipose tissue exerts specific functional properties that are associated with an improved metabolic and cardiovascular risk profile.” Yawn.
Maybe the extra “findings,” like about intelligence, were in some press release, now long lost.
Gist is that you can’t trust most of what you read. Surprised?
