Did you know that fat cells can swell to several thousand-fold their volume, depending on the amount of triglyceride content? Swollen fat cells create inflammation, and therefore affects your heart health, metabolic system and ages your brain by decreasing brain tissue: If your BMI is close to 25, your brain tissue has begun to decrease and your brain can be 6 years older than your age! If your BMI is between 25 - 30, your brain tissue decreases by 4% and your brain is 8 years older than your age! If your BMI is over 30, your brain tissue decreases by 8% and your brain is 16 years older than your age! (per Dr. Amen, neuroscientist).
