  Why do I plump out ? It seems I do not eat much, I eat low-fat food...
 

 There are three main reasons why we plump out. First of all, it can be a disease that disturbs balance of hormones. Most often these are disorders of activity of pancreas or thyroid.

 Secondly, we plump out due to energetic imbalance. Simply speaking, we ingest more calories than we expend. And it does not matter whether we eat healthy, balanced food or not. If we eat much of it, the excess of it will be converted into body fat on our stomachs or thighs. By the way, it is the main, most frequent cause of plumping out.

 The third reason we grow fatter is our family. Heredity, so to speak genes. As a rule the maximum genetic dependence is observed between a mother and a daughter. Slightly lower dependence is seen between a mother and a son and the lowest dependence is observed between a father and his children. Also important are family’s eating traditions – how the child was fed since his infancy. If he was constantly being forced to eat something “for father, for mother”, etc. all day long, then when maturing and even when being an adult he will eat too much. Simply because of the habit. It is very likely that the behaviour of his descendants will be similar.
