You have heard that belly fat (abdominal fat) threatens your health! Belly fat has been associated with contributing to such diseases as cancer. That is serious stuff!

Belly fat causes other health problems too! Scientist have learned much more about fat cells (adipose tissue) than ever before. Researchers from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis found that abdominal fat cells secrete inflammatory proteins that cause damage to blood vessels and other cells.

Wait, there’s more! These inflammatory chemicals secreted by belly fat cells are implicated in the development of coronary artery disease and Metabolic Syndrome! That is why personal trainers and health professionals always measure body fat with a special emphasis placed on your belly fat!

So, being fit and healthy is much more than just losing weight! Don’t ever try a quick weight loss program again! Fit and healthy means just that! You can look slim and trim and still be unhealthy! Having high body fat, especially belly fat, is not healthy!

Weight loss management works along with fat loss management. Regular strength training, cardio exercise and a good meal plan will help you burn fat (lose inches), speed up your metabolism and lose the weight for good! No more yo-yo dieting and regaining that weight!
