It’s not just a beer belly, it’s toxic waist

Since it is Movember, let’s talk about another common health hazard, excess fat.

Not just the infamous “beer belly” (a source of pride for many guys)

but visceral fat, the fat that is packed tight around your internal organs.

This fat is a killer! However, because it isn’t seen from the outside of the body, it becomes a non-issue for most guys.

“The good news is that visceral fat yields fairly easily to exercise and diet, with benefits ranging from lower blood pressure to more favorable cholesterol levels.”

This is quoted from Harvard Health Publications and you can read the whole article here

I want to see more guys live healthy, long lives. Hopefully this will spur someone out there to take action!

Men, you can be healthy and fit at any age, so let’s get started!

Please help support Movember by sharing this article with the guys in your family, co-workers, etc. Thanks!
