Why obese people are often hilarious?

Fat people are actually more fun because their genes show they are less depressed.

Scientists from McMaster University, Canada, found 'fat gene' also known as ' happy gene' , FTO gene, associated with 8% reduction in risk. depression.

Scientists believe there is genetic evidence that explains why fat people are happier than their skinny friends.

Scientists have linked genes that cause fat to be happy with genes. Star Lisa Riley recently said she was a "fat person, a really happy girl who is fortunate enough to be confident with her own appearance".

Understanding this may help explain why big fat characters like Laughing Police (The Laughing Policeman) and Santa are often described as funny and kind.

Fene Gene is an important genetic contribution to obesity. But it is also associated with an 8% reduction in the risk of depression.

Researchers at McMaster University, Canada have checked whether there is a link between obesity and depression.

But when they examined this gene and the mental status of patients in the EpiDREAM study, led by Population Health Research Institute, they found the opposite result.

The study analyzed 17,200 DNA samples from volunteers in 21 countries.

The results showed that people with previously identified FTO genes - fat genes - showed fewer signs of depression.

The results of the study were confirmed by the analysis of the gene status of patients in three other international studies.

Professor David Meyre of McMaster University, Canada said: 'We set out to follow a different path, starting with the hypothesis that both depression and obesity deal with brain activity.'

We hypothesize that obesity genes may be related to depression.

The difference of eight percent is modest and it will make a big difference in day-to-day care of patients.

But, we have discovered a new theoretical basis for depression.

"This is the first evidence that an obese FTO gene is involved in protecting against depression, independent of its effect on body weight index." In a recent interview Lisa Riley said she was comfortable with her size.

Lisa Riley said she was a really happy and lucky person, enough to be confident in her appearance, and added: "Many people will even sacrifice their left arm to be slim. But not me.

Lisa Riley said: 'I know people will think I'm just saying that. They may think I'm upset with my big looks. '
