What is visceral fat?
There are two types of abdominal fat. Subcutaneous abdominal fat and visceral abdominal fat.

Subcutaneous abdominal fat
Grab your belly with your fingers and you are holding now subcutaneous abdominal fat in your hand. This fat is between your abdominal muscles and your skin.
Visceral abdominal fat
This fat you cannot grasp. Visceral abdominal fat is in your abdominal cavity, under your abdominal muscles.

Having too much visceral fat makes your belly look bloated and thick. The fat will push your abdominal wall outward and can make your belly feel hard, because the fat is under your abdominal muscles. As is often the case with men.

Visceral fat can be recognized as:

A beer belly
A bulging belly
A large, round, hard belly
A strong apple shape figure: thin legs, but a lot of weight around the waist
Overweight
Not only overweight people often have too much visceral fat. Even people with a healthy weight can have too much visceral abdominal fat.

Hazards of visceral fat
Abdominal visceral fat is much more harmful than abdominal subcutaneous fat. If you have too much of it, it is the most harmful fat in your body.

Excess visceral fat puts not only pressure on your abdominal wall, but also on the organs in which it has to share your abdominal cavity with – such as your liver, stomach, intestines and kidneys. What makes visceral fat even more harmful is that your hormones are affected by it.

Visceral fat generates hormones that interrupt the burning of fat and can cause even more fat to be stored. Via these hormones abdominal fat also affects how you feel.

It is important to realize that visceral abdominal fat exists. It affects your hormones, organs, resources, appetite and weight.
If you have too much abdominal visceral fat, you are at higher risk for serious disorders, including:

A heart attack
High cholesterol
Diabetes
Alzheimer’s disease
A stroke
Breast and colon cancer
