- Beyond visible weight gain, hidden fat can build up in organs and muscles, quietly influencing long-term health
- A recent study published in the European Heart Journal found that where fat collects in your body is closely tied to how quickly your cardiovascular system ages
- The study showed that visceral fat, liver fat, and fat infiltrating muscles were strongly linked with premature cardiovascular aging
- Researchers also uncovered gender-specific patterns. Men tended to accumulate more visceral and abdominal fat, while women carried more subcutaneous and thigh fat
- To protect your heart, shift from focusing only on weight loss to improving metabolic health. Check your metabolic markers, eat the right carbs, cut seed oils, and build strength through daily movement
