FAT ON BUM MAKES YOUR BABY BRAINY Women with a big backside like Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lopez are likely to produce more intelligent children because fat found in their thighs and bottoms are needed to develop babies brains, a new study says. Academics claim that these fat banks play a vital role in fuelling the development of newborns brains during breast feeding - with a womans behind acting as a reserve for vital nutrients. The study suggests that the ability of women to retain large fat reserves on their legs and buttocks was a vital element in survival and the evolution of intelligence. Prof. Will Lassek, a public health epidemiologist at Pittsburgh University in the US, says: The fat in these areas are also enriched in docosahexaenoic acid, which is a particularly important component in the human brain. It looks as if women have evolved to accumulate these fats and hold on to them - until a baby arrives.
