Why the general belly is the most dangerous?

With everyone’s awareness of health, obesity is no longer a symbol of wealth, instead has long become a sign of metabolic disease. The central obesity is what we often call the general belly, with the obesity problem is more and more serious, we can realize the harm of obesity. Weight loss has also become a health fashion. In fact, the harm of obesity is not big, the key depends on where the fat grows, if you are other parts of the body are thin, only the arm some worship meat, such obesity problem is not so dangerous to life. But if you belong to the central obesity, fat accumulation mainly in the abdomen, that can be beware of it. Central obesity is the most dangerous type of obesity, the problem is serious and even life-threatening. What is central obesity? Central obesity is also called abdominal obesity or centripetal obesity. The main characteristic is that other parts of obesity is not obvious, but abdominal fat accumulation is serious. Central obesity reflects mainly the problem of excessive visceral fat. The international comprehensive standard for determining people’s fat and thin is BMI, but BMI mainly reflects the body’s whole body fat problem, not the problem of visceral fat. The World Health Organization (WHO) considers men with waist circumference ≥ 102 cm and women with waist circumference ≥ 88 cm or waist/hip circumference: men > 1.0 and women > 0.9 as central obesity. But this standard is a little gap for Chinese people. In China, male waist circumference ≥ 85 cm, female waist circumference ≥ 80 cm is already considered central obesity. Most of our male obesity belongs to central obesity, while female obesity is also mostly abdominal and waist obesity. (Therefore, in addition to BMI, waist circumference is also an important reference standard for weight reduction surgery.) How deadly is central obesity? The University of Washington School of Medicine Human Nutrition Research Center has hosted a study found that the distribution of fat location directly affects the health of obese people, of which the abdominal fat accumulation problem is the most harmful to human health. 1, central obesity is prone to fatty liver The abdomen is a concentration of important organs such as the liver, pancreas, stomach and intestines. When the abdomen is obese, too much visceral fat enters the digestive system, which will damage the liver and lead to fatty liver. 2, central obesity leads to diabetes abdominal obesity will affect the new city metabolism, affect the consumption and absorption of sugar, easily lead to diabetes. 3, central obesity increases the risk of cancer Harvard Medical School Associate Professor Giovannucci and other researchers have prospective cohort study of healthy men between the ages of 40 and 75 (n = 47732) found that waist circumference and the incidence of colorectal cancer, waist circumference ≥ 109cm than <89cm colorectal cancer risk increased by 2.56 times. In other words, people with obese waist and abdomen are more likely to have colorectal cancer. In addition to colorectal cancer, central obesity will also increase the risk of uterine cancer, liver cancer and other cancers. 4, central obesity increases the possibility of heart disease The British Medical Journal published a report said that abdominal obesity may cause sudden fatal heart disease. Abdominal obesity will affect the heart function, affect the body blood supply, which includes the brain blood supply. Causes of central obesity 1, poor digestion poor digestion will affect metabolism, easily lead to constipation. Constipation does not improve, the abdomen will become fat, and will accumulate a lot of toxins. 2.Over-eating The most root cause of obesity is that the calorie intake exceeds the calorie consumption. If you eat non-stop, and do not often exercise, the intake of calories can not be consumed, will be converted into fat accumulation in the body. And the abdomen is the location of the digestive system, and the fat layer is already thick, naturally easy to gain weight. 3, the metabolic rate decreases real many people appear obesity problems mainly from the middle age period. This is mainly because with the growth of age or exercise reduction, people's metabolic energy will decline. Metabolic rate a decline, people are easy to fat up. And the human body is most likely to obesity up part is the abdomen. 4, sedentary sit down immediately after meals, and sedentary will affect the blood circulation, poor circulation, metabolism is not good, and for a long time people will become a big belly. Weight loss surgery is to let high weight people get rid of obesity, so as to stay away from the metabolic disease caused by obesity.
