Female body may be an indicator of intelligence, according to scientists from the University of Pittsburgh and the University of California. They relied on the study of mental abilities of more than 16,000 women.

They relate this to omega-3 fatty acids that accumulate in hips and benefit the intelligence of a woman and her future baby.
