Dangers of belly fat
Menusually notice the growth of their bellies. Some blame food, lack ofexercise, alcohol, you name it. This is of lesser importance if youdon't know what risks you are exposed to. Anyway your subconsciousness makes the decision that this fat has to go. You feel unconfortable withhaving a big abdomen and start looking for ways to get rid of it. Thisis a very good choice you have unwillingly made. You will see rightaway why by reading on.
Let's start then. Fat goes and deposits in 2 places in the human body. One is the thigh and the other is the belly. The former is more common in women and the latter in men. In medical terms this is called fat distribution and is measured by the waist-hip ratio with certain measures accordingto each type of distribution: gynoid or android.
Sowhy is this important? Gynoid fat distribution poses little risk because the thigh has only muscles, but when fat accumulates in your abdomenit's time to loose weight. The threats are numerous because fat notonly deposits under your skin, but also surrounds the inner organs ofthe abdomen: the liver, stomach, spleen, bowels, kidneys and so on.This adipose “capsule” alters the function of the organ it surrounds.
I will explain what happens when your bowels are surrounded by fat. Fat will create pressure on the bowels thus slowing intestinal movement.The effect is that you will be constipated and that absorption of nutrients and toxins is prolonged. The former leads to excess of energy for thebody and increased transformation and storage of fat – vicious circle,the latter leads to extra stress on the liver in order to cleanse yourbody. Also cholesterol uptake increases.
Of course this does not happen within days it takes a long long time to develop. You have to ask yourself, is there any way I can exercise my liver or bowels? There is no way that's for sure. Once fat deposits (read an indepth fat guide here) there they will be very difficult to burn. Even after loosing weight, especially sudden slimming, fat remains around these organs.
Weight loss is good , it's healthy if you succeed in pacing it over months with a rate of 1-2 lbs. per week. You will find that the Internet is full with resources about weight loss pills and diets you only have to look for the credible and honest websites.
