Dr. Sean O'Mara joins us again and shares his insights on the importance of understanding different types of body fat and their impact on health. Visceral fat surrounds internal organs and can contribute to chronic inflammation and disease.
Reducing visceral fat can improve or eliminate associated health conditions. Myosteatosis, or fatty infiltration of muscle tissue, leads to loss of muscle function and mobility, especially in older adults. It doubles the risk of mortality compared to obesity alone.
Different types of subcutaneous fat have varying effects - some are protective, while others release inflammatory molecules and impact physical performance. Excess fat around the heart can be reduced through dietary changes. Atopic, cardio, and other visceral fats are unhealthy and should be avoided.
Getting scans and working with a doctor to eliminate these fat deposits is recommended. Maintaining a healthy balance of protective subcutaneous fat is crucial, as extreme fat loss through procedures like liposuction or excessive bodybuilding can deplete this beneficial fat, leading to negative health consequences. The overall message emphasises understanding the nuances of different fat types and prioritizing overall health and balance rather than extreme fat loss or unrealistic physique goals.
