Will Omega-3 EFAs help me to burn more of my stored body fat?

Frequently Asked Questions

Does weight effect conception rates? What about body fat distribution?

FertilityPlus: Infertility FAQ for Women of Size
There was a study published in the British Medical Journal that found that very lean women and very obese women (BMI >38) had lower conception rates. However, body fat distribution was found to have a greater impact. Women with a high waist-hip ratio had greater trouble conceiving -- so being shaped like an apple is not as good for conception as being shaped like a pear. PCO women may be more likely to have the apple shape.

The process of burning, generally, occurs when molecules of oxygen join the "burning" substance turning it into something different.

Lipolysis is a very complex process though. It's under control of brain: if the nerves connecting fat tissues with the brain are temporarily switched off by anesthetics, the lipolysis stops.
