What is Visceral Fat?

What is Visceral Fat Interview

There are two main types of fat in the body. We’ve got subcutaneous fat. This is the fat underneath the surface of the skin. But living deep behind the ribs on our organs is visceral fat. It’s located near several vital organs, including the heart, kidneys, and liver. Visceral fat is often called “bad fat” due to the increased health risks that come with having it. Unfortunately, this dangerous fat is not easy to spot. Even extremely healthy people with very little subcutaneous fat can be at risk for health issues because of fatty deposits on their organs.
