Obesity and overweight have become a global health problem that leads to numerous health issues and disease. It has been believed that the number of fat cells in an adult have been predetermined from childhood and when an adult gains weight in adipose tissue it increases the size of the fat cells they already have. New research suggests:

Medications do not increase fat cell numbers

Adipocytes occur in large groups in adipose connective tissue

When insulin levels are increased, the storage of triglycerides in adipose tissue is almost blocked

Adipose tissue in adults contains preadipocyctes, capable of forming new fat cells, and fat deposition can result from these immature adipocytes.
