The BMI. Body Mass Index. It sounds like it would be accurate. Comparing the height of someone to their weight. But there is no accounting for all kinds of things. Generally speaking a large man who is extremely strong with little fat will still be fat on the index.
Sure we are a fat nation. But sometimes concepts are adopted to promote - dare I say, a need for products.
Your brain is something else!
There are more nerve connections in a human brain then there are stars in the galaxy. Who would have thought?Doesn't sound right?
Astronomers have appraised there are more than 200 billion stars in the Milky Way. But the Neuroscientists say there are about 1 quadrillion nerve connections in a average 3 year old's brain. After that? There is a slimming down process where in a adult there are about half of that amount (about 500 trillion).
So cool. I heard that it is over a trillion bacteria in our bodies also.

I've got over two hundred hubs and I've never had a Hub go below 45 when I first designed it - when I started this one it was at 51 - but it's now at 43?I don't think it's overly promotional and it's all my own work - any idea why it would go so low?http://hubpages.com/hub/Fifa-2010-World …...

I want to add some photos to my hub but it says error and doesn't save. Neither can delete an excising photo. Does this happen to you too?
