Belly fat is made up of two types of body fat – subcutaneous fat and visceral fat. Subcutaneous fat is the kind everyone knows about, the type under the skin. When you pinch a roll of fat – that’s subcutaneous belly fat. The second type of fat, visceral fat, is less well known and only of late better understood by scientists. You can’t pinch this deep belly fat, as it is hidden deep within the abdomen and lies out of reach. Fat in the lower body tends to be of the subcutaneous kind, while much of belly fat is visceral fat.
Until only recently scientists believed that fat was simply a place to store excess energy, i.e. calories. They didn’t think fat actually did anything. Now we understand that in truth fat is biologically active – especially the deep belly fat. Deep belly fat is akin to a gland that produces hormones and other substances which can strongly affect our health. Excess body fat, particularly deep belly fat, disturbs the normal balance and functioning of these hormones with dire consequences
A combination of exercise and the right diet will help you lose the abdominal fat that’s linked to a higher risk of heart disease.
Maintaining a trim midsection does more than make you look great—it can help you live longer. Larger waistlines are linked to a higher risk of heart disease, diabetes and even cancer. Losing weight, especially belly fat, also improves blood vessel functioning and also improves sleep quality.
It’s impossible to target belly fat specifically when you diet. But losing weight overall will help shrink your waistline; more importantly, it will help reduce the dangerous layer of visceral fat, a type of fat within the abdominal cavity that you can’t see but that heightens health risks, says Kerry Stewart, Ed.D., director of Clinical and Research Physiology at Johns Hopkins.
Move away from processed foods.
The ingredients in packaged goods and snack foods are often heavy on trans fats, added sugar and added salt or sodium—three things that make it difficult to lose weight.
