It is the season of ume (a sort of Japanese plum) blossoms. Many birds sing on the branches. Spring has come.http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18227448
I heard an interesting report via a friend of mine. A study by Canadian researchers showed that breast size may indicate a risk of type 2 diabetes. Even after adjusting several other risk factors, the risk to develop diabetes is 1.64 times higher in the D cup women than in the A cup women. Since breasts contain fat more than 60%, it is no wonder that cup size is correlated to the degree of obesity; however, the research indicated that breast size is a factor independent of body mass index (BMI). Of course, BMI is not an accurate index to assess obesity. In any case, it may be possible that breast size predicts diabetes in the women like the belly size.
I picture a scene that an A cup lady tells a D cup lady, "You will get diabetes !".
