    Want to get rid of some fat cells as you age? Fat chance.

    You're stuck with the number of fat cells you have acquired by about age 20, a new study finds.

    Researchers have known that people gain and lose weight at least in part by changing how much fat is in their fat cells. The new finding is particularly important for obese people, who the researchers say can have twice as many fat cells as their lean counterparts.

    Sounds pretty much like rubbish to me, we are getting fatter, no doubt, and unless there's a reason why more people are being born with more fatty cells than ever before then its to do with diet and exercise
    If you also agree that an animals suffering should be avoided rather than encouraged, consider what steps you can take.
