Aerobic and Cardiovascular Exercise
A Boston University School of Medicine recently published research results which showed that a healthy body-mass index is not necessarily indicative of the amount of dangerous fat in and around your heart and other vital organs. Additionally, they discovered that these internal fat deposits are associated with decreased cardiovascular function. Visceral fat or fat around your organs increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and diabetes.
Thankfully, you can reduce visceral fat through diet and exercise (isn’t that always the answer), and once you lose it, it is easier to keep it from coming back than the fat that lies below your skin (subcutaneous fat). According to the University of Alabama study; 80 minutes of aerobic or strength exercise a week is all it takes to keep the fat from coming back.
Fiber may also play a role in the fat equation. Research coming from the University of South Carolina found that overweight adolescents who increased the amount of fiber in their diets over a two-year period decreased the amount of harmful fat in and around their waists. Nutritionists recommend snacking on fresh fruit and vegetables, eating oatmeal for breakfast, and choosing brown rice and whole wheat products over foods made from processed grains.
Fiber also plays an important role in preventing digestive disorders. See our post Digestive Disorders – Prevention at Curepure.com
