Visceral Fats

Initially I didn't know what visceral fats means and it just began when Niko bought a body scale from Japan that can measure your visceral fats. After that I tried to find out what visceral fats means.

But recently somebody share in facebook post about visceral fats. I was surprise because it then can effect not only the blood vessel but also the organ inside your body.

There's a video of a doctor cut a fat corpse open. We obviously can see that the doctor couldn't find the heart and other organs because they were covered by yellow fats. Imagine you need an operation and I think the operation is going to be much more difficult for the surgeon and then it will cause higher risk for the operation.

After that, they brought out the organs and put them on the tray. There was another tray of normal weight human organ. He started comparing each organ between the normal weight human and overweight human. We can obviously see that the lungs were very small and the heart was double the size of normal human heart. I have not research further on why the size of the heart is bigger than the normal one.

The visceral fat is also known as fatty toxic. The good news is, since visceral fat is metabolically active, it is very easy to burn. Sometimes just small changes in diet and exercise can reduce visceral fat levels significantly.
