I have Stubborn Fat

Have you ever noticed how it is harder to slim down some parts of your body compared to others? This is due to the accumulation of ‘stubborn fat’ or subcutaneous fat in that area. Subcutaneous fat is harder to lose (thus the name ‘stubborn’) compared to visceral fat and intramuscular fat. According to a Harvard’s research, about 90% of body fat is subcutaneous, whereas only 10% is made up of visceral fat.

The difference between these 2 are subcutaneous fat are visible under the skin whereas visceral fat is far beneath the muscles. Aside from that, it is more difficult to get rid of stubborn fat compared to visceral fat.

CAUSES OF STUBBORN FAT

There are several reasons to having stubborn fat. Subsequently, it all comes down to your metabolism and the factors that contributes into it. Here are some factors that leads to the deposit of stubborn fat.

Stress: Having high stress level pushes your body to release a hormone called cortisol, that will cause a high insulin level. As this hormone released, you will feel the needs to consume sugary foods. The unused energy from the sugary food will be absorbed by the fat cells, causing it to enlarge.

Diet: Your diet can also influence the fat development in your body. If you are consuming more products in carbohydrates, fat and sugar group, it will definitely result in a high stubborn fat deposit around your waist.

Lack of exercise: All in all, it comes back to your lifestyle. To avoid fat from forming in the first place, it should be used in the form of exercises. Swimming, jogging and lifting weights are effective exercises to release the energy.

Insulin level: If you are having a thick middle section it might be because of your body isn’t handling insulin very well, which often results in fatty deposits around the waist.
