Although most people want to lose belly fat so they look better, there are many more reasons why shrinking your midsection should be a priority. Recent studies have found that belly fat is more dangerous for the heart than general obesity. If that isn't scary enough, people carrying extra pounds around the waist have mortality rates that are twice as high as those who are obese. Even if the rest of your body is within normal range for body fat, a large mid-section will still put you at risk for serious medical conditions. Therefore, if you want to live a long and healthy life, losing your belly fat is a must. This isn't hype - science has confirmed that belly fat is not only a potential sign of poor cardiovascular health, but can also be a predictor of future health problems, such as insulin resistance, diabetes, heart attack, cancer, dementia, stroke, sexual dysfunction, sleep problems and mood disorders.
