– A normal body does not look like that.
For Mikael Rydén, the answer is clear. He is a professor of clinical and experimental adipose tissue research.
– We are developed to cope with starvation, we must have a layer of adipose tissue. Then it is different where it settles, for example women can have a lot of fatty tissue on the buttock and thighs, but then it is less active and more benign, it does not have the same negative effect on the body’s insulin sensitivity, he says.
