where women who do not want to have the body long and slender as a model? Although it looks more interesting, but whether that body shape is also healthy?
A recent study found that women who had high posture and slim are likely to be at risk of nontuberculous Mycobacteria (NTM) development. This infection also shows a weak immune response relates to the fat cells.
Nontuberculous Mycobacteria (NTM) consists of dozens of species that spread over the soil or groundwater. These bacteria can the human body such as the skin and attacks most often infects the lungs.
If the lungs are infected with hard-pressed to treat it. Even required surgery and intravenous antibiotic therapy for a long time.
In this study found that the average patient NTM have a higher height 2 inches (5-6 cm) and weight gain 2 points lower than the normal IMT, as well as just have a bit of fat in the body.
NTM patients also showed the durability of response to different bodies. Fat cells that produce the hormone, leptin and adiponektin governing body mass index and immune function.
Leptin function helps the immune system to fight infection. Just a little on the skinny people so fat body leptinnya production is reduced. The body is therefore more vulnerable to infection.
