Some Things Women Must Know About Heart Attacks (Story System Checked)

While almost all physicians claim that fat around our waists is not good for health, a new study has found that people with fat legs are less likely to suffer from high blood pressure and less likely to experience a heart attack.

Researchers at the New Jersey School of Medicine examined people's blood pressure levels based on the fat tissue in their legs.

They used 6,000 adults for an average age of 37 for the study. Nearly half of the study participants were women and 24 percent of them were diagnosed with high blood pressure of 130/80 or higher.

The researchers then performed X-rays to measure the adipose tissue in the legs and compared it to the general adipose tissue in the body.

Participants were classified according to their blood pressure level.
