No more fat babies.
Scientists have learned that even though we’re all born with a certain number of fat cells, that number increases during infancy and again right before puberty. After that, most of us won’t make any more fat cells unless we gain more than 160 percent of our ideal weight. If your ideal weight is 130 pounds, for instance, you wouldn’t be adding any more fat cells until you reached 208 pounds.
Yet another reason to turn your children into pack mules.
