Visceral Fat Loss

Visceral Fat

Weight and even body fat percentage are not perfectly correlated to good or bad health. You can be overweight and healthy or “normal weight” and unhealthy. That is because your numbers on the scale are not as important as the amount of visceral fat you have.

Visceral Fat is The Culprit

Visceral fat is also known as belly fat, abdominal fat, intra-abdominal fat, organ fat, or omental fat. It is the fat around your internal organs. Visceral fat releases inflammatory chemicals, fats, and hormones into your bloodstream. Visceral fat increases your appetite, bad cholesterol, triglycerides, blood sugar, blood pressure, and insulin resistance. Visceral fat also makes it more difficult for you to breathe.
