Dr. Kerwin stated that pear-shaped women had more memory and brain problems that apple-shaped women because of the type of fat deposits in those two locations (primarily hips for pear-shaped women, and waist for apply-shaped women).
Kerwin added, "We need to find out if one kind of fat is more detrimental than the other, and how it affects brain function. The fat may contribute to the formation of plaques associated with Alzheimer's disease or a restricted blood flow to the brain."
And, "The study tells us if we have a woman in our office, and we know from her waist-to-hip ratio that she's carrying excess fat on her hips, we might be more aggressive with weight loss. We can't change where your fat is located, but having less of it is better."
