Are those thin girls really born thin?
Being thin is a woman's lifelong dream. With a slim figure, women can wear more beautiful clothes and show their beauty more confidently. But did you know that being too thin can cause six major diseases? Let's see!

1 Gastroptosis: Don't envy the female colleagues around you who are always full as soon as they eat, and can cope with a lunch with a few mouthfuls of rice. Only she knows how much pain her stomach suffers every day: loss of appetite and always feeling flatulence and pain. If you do a painful gastroscopy for this, the diagnosis may be: gastroptosis. Yes, when the human body is too thin, the abdominal wall is slack and the abdominal muscles are weak, which leads to the weakness of the muscles and ligaments that suspend and fix the position of the stomach, and the abdominal pressure drops, so the physiological position of the whole stomach is reduced and the gastric peristalsis is weakened, which leads to gastroptosis.

Gallstones: Our bile is secreted by the liver, which contains cholesterol, bile salts, calcium and lecithin. And they keep a certain proportion. People who are too thin generally have insufficient calorie intake, so the consumption rate of fat precipitated in body tissues is accelerated, and cholesterol moves with it, resulting in its content in bile increasing, becoming sticky, precipitating crystals and forming stones.

3 Uterine prolapse: Without the protection of sufficient fat, the uterus can easily descend from the normal position along the vagina, the cervix will droop, and even get out of the vaginal opening, forming what we call uterine prolapse, which may even lead to cervical infection and even cervicitis.

4 Infertility: Medical experts point out that women's body fat percentage must reach at least 17% in order to maintain normal menstrual cycle and sexual desire level, which is also the minimum fat standard for their healthy pregnancy, delivery and breastfeeding in the future. Because adipose tissue can convert the raw materials provided by adrenal cortex into estrogen, it is an important place to produce estrogen in the body except ovaries. If there is too little fat in the body, it will affect the synthesis of estrogen and its concentration level in the blood, resulting in insufficient estrogen level, which is one of the key criteria affecting women's fertility.

5 Osteoporosis: A recent survey of 3683 women in the United States found that the incidence of hip fracture in thin women was 1 times higher than that in standard weight women. This is because the estrogen level in thin people is insufficient, which affects the combination of calcium and bone and cannot maintain normal bone density, so osteoporosis and fractures are prone to occur.

6 anemia: people who are too thin generally have the problem of unbalanced nutrient intake, and hematopoietic substances such as iron, folic acid and vitamin B 12 are insufficient; Because of eating less, the basal metabolic rate is lower than that of ordinary people, so the gastrointestinal movement is slow and the gastric acid secretion is less, which affects the absorption of nutrients. These are the main causes of anemia. In addition, malnutrition reduces the body's immunity and is prone to secondary anemia.

7 Hematuria: Our kidneys are surrounded by a dense layer of connective tissue. Too thin people have insufficient body fat content, which leads to the relaxation of this connective tissue and the weakening of muscle strength, and cannot provide external muscle protection for the kidneys. Therefore, the kidneys are prone to droop and lead to internal venous blood exudation, hematuria, and often accompanied by waist pain.

8 Duodenal stasis: You may not be familiar with this disease, but your emaciation may be the culprit. The cross section of the duodenum is located behind the peritoneum and is the most fixed part of the digestive tract. Too thin people, the mesentery and retroperitoneal fat are scarce, and the internal organs droop, which virtually narrows the gap between the spine and the proximal end of the superior mesenteric artery, resulting in duodenal compression. Therefore, it is difficult to digest what you eat, which is manifested as abdominal fullness and discomfort, accompanied by pain or vomiting after meals. Vomiting contains bile and food eaten, and the symptoms are intermittent and recurrent.

Memory decline: The main motivation for brain work comes from fat, which can stimulate the brain, accelerate the brain's ability to process information, and enhance short-term and long-term memory. The thin human body is short of fat intake and storage, and the body is short of nutrition, which seriously damages brain cells and directly affects memory, so we become more and more forgetful.

10 alopecia: The main components of human hair are protein called fish protein and trace elements such as zinc, iron and copper. Too thin people have insufficient supply of body fat and protein, so their hair frequently falls off and their hair color gradually loses its luster.
