（单词翻译）

For many people, gaining weight as they age is an unfortunate, but unavoidable, fact of life. Some people gain it in the belly1 area, some pack on the pounds lower down, in the thighs2. Now, not gaining weight at all is probably the best option. But if you had to choose where your extra pounds would go, picking the lower body might be the better option. Why ? Weight gain in the upper body happens when eating too much junk results in the expansion of existing fat cells. For reasons that are not entirely3 clear, the growth of these existing cells may trigger what’s known as metabolic4 disease a host of problems that disrupt metabolism5, and cause all sorts of issues.
