Isn't that pretty much what that article says, though? They're being a little coy about it, but basically it says high insulin leads to PCOS, so stop eating too much sugar.Necrometer wrote:shit, I had assumed PCOS was caused by obesity, not the other way around

Re: Big & Beautiful Thread of Sizeisms
a classic case of mitochondrion v. mitochondriyawn
even their fat cells are fatAfter contacting thousands of families in Finland, they came across 16 such pairs of identical adult twins, six male and 10 female. Once they got them into a lab and began testing, half of the obese twins quickly stood out.
“The first thing that popped out was when we looked at the amount of fat stored in their livers,” Dr. Naukkarinen said. “There was a significant difference.”
The 16 pairs were split evenly into two groups. In both, the average weight difference between the siblings was about 40 pounds. But in one group, the obese siblings had higher blood pressure, worse cholesterol levels and poorer measures of blood sugar and insulin production, as well as seven times the amount of fat in their livers. In the other group, the obese twins’ blood work and liver fat was similar to that of their lean twins.
Extensive tests of each person’s fat tissue revealed some other surprises. The healthy obese had 11 percent more adipocytes, or fat cells, in their subcutaneous fat tissue than their normal weight twins. But the unhealthy obese had 8 percent fewer fat cells than their leaner siblings, despite a higher body fat percentage.
The fat cells of the unhealthy obese were larger than those of any other group. They were swollen and riddled with inflammation.

Is it that these fats got fat so fast (fatst?) that certain functions couldn't notice and haven't caught up?

Re: Big & Beautiful Thread of Sizeisms
I'd say its more along the lines of the "healthy obese" people are compensating better than the standard obese. I also agree with the article that there is probably a spectrum for metabolic tolerance.Zap Rowsdower wrote:Is it that these fats got fat so fast (fatst?) that certain functions couldn't notice and haven't caught up?

Re: Big & Beautiful Thread of Sizeisms
this is a fine idea but the data suggest otherwise - the average BMI of the two obese twin groups is similar... if your thing was right, then I'd expect the healthier ones to be less fat or younger or something... or maybe that's shitty reasoning. I guess we don't know if the healthy ones got fat more recently, which would better get at your questionZap Rowsdower wrote:Is it that these fats got fat so fast (fatst?) that certain functions couldn't notice and haven't caught up?
oh, they actually address that in the article:
not looking too great for the "healthy fats"Metabolically healthy obesity is found more frequently among younger adults, as a large study in the journal Diabetes Care demonstrated in August. There is growing evidence that it may be a transition state, and that if followed long enough, some, if not many, people in this category will eventually develop the expected metabolic disturbances.
That study followed several thousand Australians for up to a decade, about 12 percent of whom were initially deemed metabolically healthy obese. “We found that about a third of these people progressed down the road to being metabolically unhealthy,” said Sarah Appleton, a research fellow at the University of Adelaide. “Metabolically healthy obesity may essentially be a transient state.”
anyone can download the paper as a zip, I think... http://www.diabetologia-journal.org/fil ... arinen.zip

My favorite part is how he admits he was never really picked on for being gay - if he'd ever actually experienced homophobia, he probably wouldn't equate fat-shaming with it so readily.

That and blaming the government for making high caloric substances available that fat people enjoy stuffing down their gob.
Also: "hfcs was introduce in the early 90s and diebeties never existed before hfcs was introduced"
This bullshit represents probably 98% of all fat fuck nutritional knowledge base.
