Discovered mummies 2,200 years old is overweight by eating more sugar, did not practice much sitting

People age, significant enough to be Mummy but that is not the picture to where you follow.

You are overweight and obese, lazy and more? But not only you seem so wide, I'm not talking about this era, but from thousands of years ago!
For the first time. the remains of 2,200-year-old remains of an ancient cleric has been on display at the Israel Museum on Tuesday. CT's Mummy shows that this person, with the name of Iret-hor-iru (Protective Eye of Horus) suffer diseases such as tooth decay or clogging the arteries, these diseases commonly found in many societies obesity today.

Galit exhibition curator Bennett said the nickname Mummy this other diseases having Alex again as osteoporosis and noticeable benefit, the signs indicate that this person when alive have eaten so much sugar and starch. Autopsy shows Alex sedentary and less sunny out, just sit in the House of the Regal life enjoyment of the upper classes in Egypt.
"Osteoporosis is a typical disease of the 20th century, when people no longer have to work hard any more. Her generation onwards began tied the computer screen a lot more, "he said of Bennett. "We are surprised that in the past of many thousands of years ago, there are also those who lazy to lobbying to influence the body as this example here".


CT shows people caught diseases such as osteoporosis, tooth decay and noticeable benefits.
But also not something strange, because as far as the ancient sculptors, the overweight is a sign of both money and health. The food at that time were not abundant and "the fat" is something to pursue. In Europe, big weight may have a life of riches, not hard labour. Seems like ancient Egypt is no different.
But Alex is not the "obese Mummy" single. An experiment was conducted in 2013 on 137 mummies from around the world showed that 34% of the Mummy's heart disease. Even, the study of the corpse found in the island of Kagamil near Alaska also pointed out that heart disease is not uncommon, even in regular people.
Although many consider the disease atherosclerosis is the disease of modern times, but the evidence that this disease has appeared from before the formation of the modern world has opened up the possibility that cardiovascular disease has a nature have not been studied.
However, don't be lazy and eat too much food is harmful to health, keep the health for yourself.
