Visceral fat is home to diseases

The nutritionist said, “Your body weight alone is not a measure of your overall health or disease risk. Waist size also indicates visceral obesity which helps indicate disease risk. Extra fat gets deposited in the intraabdominal region, which is called visceral fat. This is more prone to diseases than fat accumulation in other places. When your waist size is increasing, it means that the amount of fat in the intestines is increasing.”
