Interesting facts: Where do you fit in?

Wednesday, March 28, 2012



This is an old Self Magazine Article that came out in the November issue of 2008.  It's just a few facts about certain body types that I find quite interesting.  It's also a nice little self confidence booster for you, and for those of you who have daughters.  So, where do you fit in?

If you have a:

Short Stature:  "Women shorter than 5 foot 5 may have a more efficient ticker that facilitates better blood and oxygen flow throughout the body, protecting against heart disease."

Chocolate-Brown Eyes:  "Brown-eyed girls have a better chance of not getting ocular melanoma, a form of eye cancer."

Junk in you trunk:  "A little extra padding on your bottom may well protect you against type 2 diabetes... the type of fat that accumulates around your butt and thighs seems to produce substances that improve the body's ability to process sugar."

An hourglass figure:  "Women with larger breasts and hips and a relatively low waist-to-hip ratio have nearly 30 percent higher levels of a reproductive hormone called estradiol.  That may make them up to three times more likely to get pregnant."

  2. Chocolate Brown Eyes :) The guy at whole foods today told me that my lovely new red hair brings out my brown eyes. I think he was pulling my leg. However, that's my chocolate brown eyes story of the day.
