According to scientists, the fat stored in the buttocks and thighs—unlike abdominal fat—  acts as a kind of protective shield . This fat contains omega-3 fatty acids, which are beneficial for the heart and brain. It also helps reduce bad cholesterol levels and promotes better blood sugar control.

“Women with a higher proportion of gluteal fat tend to have a more favorable metabolic profile, with a lower risk of heart disease, diabetes, or high cholesterol,” explained Dr. Konstantinos Manolopoulos, lead author of the study.
