A recent study presented at the Annual Meeting of the Radiology Association in North America revealed that diets containing high levels of many treated foods are linked to an increase in the accumulation of fat in the hamstrings, regardless of the amount of calories consumed or the level of physical activity. The study indicated that the accumulation of fat in the hamstrings could increase the risk of osteoporosis in the knee. And the accumulation of fat in the muscles leads to ‘oily degeneration’, which is to replace the muscle fibers with fat, and this change weakens the muscles and makes them less able to tolerate or resist, such as arthritis in the knee. Many modern diets are increasingly dependent on artificial ingredients and have been treated significantly, such as ready -made grains, canned snacks, sausage, soft drinks and sweets. These foods are characterized by long periods of validity and high attractiveness; Due to a mixture of sugar, fat, salt and carbohydrates, which affects the bonus system in the brain and makes it difficult to stop eating. The effect of ultra -treated foods on the accumulation of fats, inflammation and ultra -treated foods are the foods that cannot be cooked at home, and include fruit juices and artificial additives that improve taste, texture and taste, or feel full of products that affect or feel full. It is classified as canned snacks, breakfasts, sweets, soft drinks, sweetened juices, yogurt, canned soups and ready -made foods, such as pizza, sausage, burger and chicken jawl. Saturated fats contain high levels of saturated fats, simple sugars and sodium that contribute to increasing infections in the body, disrupting the natural processes that regulate the storage and use of fats. The excess fat from this diet tends to build up within the muscles instead of consuming it as an energy source, leading to rapid fluctuations in blood sugar levels, which stem the pancreas and push to produce large amounts of insulin, promoting the storage of fats in different parts of the body, including muscles. It also affects the balance of beneficial bacteria in the intestines (microbium), resulting in a defect in the process of metabolism and chronic infections. These chronic infections contribute to the accumulation of fat in the muscle tissue. The new in the study is that it is achieved in the effect of the quality of the diet, specifically the role of many treated foods on the accumulation of fat in the hamstrings using MRI. The study included 666 participants in the osteochopolitis initiative, a study supported by the national health institutions in the United States, the average age of participants was 60 years and 40% of their diet during the previous year depended on many processed foods. The study showed that increased consumption is linked to increased fat within the hamstrings, regardless of the amount of calories consumed, the body mass index, social and economic factors or the levels of physical activity. In adults who have the risk of arthritis, but without real injuries, eating ultra -treated foods is associated with increased fat in the hamstrings.
