This activates the part of the child's brain that is responsible for language and learning new words. According to this report published in the Journal of Neuroscience, children with whom adults start talking from an early age have a stronger hold on language and words when they grow up.

   According to research conducted at Cambridge University, accumulation of fat on certain parts of the body is beneficial instead of harmful. Researchers believe that the accumulation of fat around the hips, compared to the stomach or liver, protects women from the risk of diabetes and heart diseases. According to lead researcher, Dr. Luca Lotta, some women are genetically predisposed to store less fat around the hip area. In such a situation, by joining the fat in the blood, it starts accumulating around other major organs, which increases the risk of diabetes or heart diseases.
