Everyone is familiar with fat cells and muscle cells, but there is another kind of cells-fibroblasts, which are not well known, but also play an important role in influencing human obesity.
There are fat cells, muscle cells and fibroblasts that affect the body's fatness or shaping. The three cells are tripartite. Under the fixed skeleton of the human body, the three will compete for territory and energy, because space is limited, showing a changing trend. The main factors that affect their winning or losing are genes, living habits and environment, as well as eating habits. The latter two are the main factors of obesity in most people at present.
These three kinds of cells that affect obesity have three states: division, growth and "rest" state of stopping growth and division. Cell division is a state of increasing number. The number of fat cells and muscle cells depends on the number of fetuses or newborn babies. Therefore, overweight babies may divide more fat cells during the fetal period. Because the cell size is not large, it has no obvious effect on obesity, but it lays a hidden danger for acquired obesity.
Growth refers to the increase of cell volume. After birth, the number of muscle cells and fat cells in the human body has not changed much. Increasing exercise or consuming too much energy will increase the volume of muscle cells and fat cells accordingly. Bodybuilders have obvious muscles because their muscle cells will become bigger. But for people who consume too much energy for a long time, the number of fat cells will increase significantly.
The "static" state is a state in which cells grow into contact with each other and stop dividing, and they are in balance with each other. If this state is broken and cells grow wantonly, they will develop into tumors. In addition, people who lose weight lose a lot of weight quickly in a short time, and the fat volume shrinks, so there will be gaps between cells. However, if they can't stick to their eating habits when they lose weight, and restoring their previous diet will lead to excess energy, then fat cells that have not adapted to the new environment will swell again, which is also an important factor for many dieters to rebound. Therefore, to develop good eating habits, one is to lose weight for a long time, and the other is to give fat cells a process of adapting to the environment.
Fat and thin are obvious, but the changes of the body are more like complex gears in clocks and watches, interlocking. Seemingly complicated, in fact, they are all pursuing a balance, their own and environmental. Getting fat and losing weight will upset the original balance. Getting fat is mostly a process from frugality to luxury, so I won't feel hard. Slimming is a process from luxury to thrift, and it is not easy to stick to it. If you are lazy to change, the pursuit of beauty will only become an extravagant hope, seemingly distant but close.
