Fat on human beings is distributed in different ways. / Some fat people have a large stomach and no waistline / --which makes them look round, rather like apples. / Others are fatter below the waist, / which makes them appear pear-shaped. / There arc two types of fat: / external fat and internal fat. / Doctors, who have been examining the relationship between health and fatness / have found that the ’ pears’ have less internal fat, / but the ’ apples’ have more internal fat than external fat. / This seems to be what causes the health problems./
     The best treatment for fatness is to reduce the internal fat. / But unfortunately it seems that / dieting simply makes an apple-shaped person into a smaller apple / and a pear-shaped person into a smaller pear. l At the moment there is no known way of reducing the internal rather than external fat./
