Lifestyle and abdominal fat

Abdominal fat accumulates due to Different factors, such as a sedentary lifestyle, various hormonal factors, and of course, the type of foods we eat have significant effects in increasing abdominal fat. This includes high consumption of sugar and not eating enough fiber and protein. Fight back against the “silent killer”

High blood pressure (HBP, or hypertension) is a symptomless “silent killer” that has the capacity to quietly damage blood vessels which leads to serious health problems.

There is no cure for high blood pressure but making lifestyle changes can enhance your quality of life and reduce your risk of heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, and more.

 Today I encourage you to join in the common goal for many. Be part of the movement of people living a healthy lifestyle by getting rid of excess belly fat, or abdominal fat and maintaining a moderate body weight and body fat percentage

A certain percentage of fat is important for good health, but the type of belly fat you store can influence your health in many ways.

The two main types of abdominal fat are:( the type of belly fat)

• visceral

• subcutaneous

Visceral fats surround the liver and other abdominal organs. The high levels of visceral fat is associated with an increased risk for chronic diseases such as metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and certain types of cancer.

Subcutaneous fat sits directly under the skin. This type is less harmful to health and serves as a layer of protection for your organs as well as insulation to regulate body temperature.

Higher amounts of subcutaneous fat can be linked to a higher amount of visceral fat, therefore increasing your risk of health problems. It is important to focus on a health-promoting lifestyle, which helps to prevent excessive amounts of both types of fat.
