That Fat Ass Could Save Your Life

Harvard Medical School's researchers are all about that big bubble butt. Seriously, it's good for you.

New research from the Ivy League medical college has shown that having a fat ass and hips can actually protect women from certain diseases. Fat-bottom girls have a lower risk of Type II Diabetes and high blood pressure, but the pear-shape here is key. Women who carry, proportionally, most of their fat in their midsections are more likely to develop diabetes and heart disease. Scientists suspect that these may be two different kinds of fat, and further research is needed.

In the meantime, we will follow the advice of Doctor Mix-a-Lot and "shake that healthy butt."
