Visceral fat and cardiovascular risk in obesity

Visceral fat, stored around internal organs, poses a significant cardiovascular risk in individuals with obesity. Unlike subcutaneous fat, visceral fat releases harmful substances like cytokines, which lead to inflammation, insulin resistance, and increased cholesterol levels. This contributes to the development of heart disease, hypertension, and stroke. Reducing visceral fat through diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes is critical in lowering the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Focused efforts on reducing abdominal fat, combined with a heart-healthy diet, can significantly improve overall cardiovascular health, even in individuals with obesity.
