A study by researchers at Loughborough University in England on the link between abdominal fat and brain size will not appeal to those who are overweight in the stomach. As we already know, abdominal fat is harmful to health. It increases the risk of sleep disorders, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome and even cancer. The English study, which involved 10,000 people aged 40 to 70, 20% of whom were obese, also shows that fat in the stomach and hips also affects brain size. The size of the brain inversely proportional to the amount of fat Loughborough’s study shows that the more fat the hips are, the more the volume of the brain, and especially the grey matter, is reduced.

Generally smart people are more wealthy, and dumb people are more poor. Wealthy people maintain a proper weight, and poor people end up fat. It’s based on diet, and poor people eat a poor diet

Note: I don’t subscribe to the theory that poor people can’t afford to eat healthy. I think dumb people choose to eat unhealthy and don’t worry about their weight as much

In the past, the wealthy were obese and the poor were skinny.

You have to be a fricking idiot or mentally ill to let yourself be fat as an adult

The correlation between brain volume and intelligence isn’t as tight as you probably think.

I'm guessing you're fat? You can change. You don't have to hate yourself.

This is correct. And still applies in places where there is not enough food available for everyone to survive. That was based on having enough money to buy enough food to gorge yourself and become fat. They didn’t have as many fattening foods back then

Now with food stamps and availability of food, everyone in major countries can eat enough to live. So it becomes a choice of what you are eating. Rich, smart people choose healthier lifestyles compared to poor, dumb people
