Rain becomes smelly and old? Take care of visceral fat first

Celebrities go to great lengths to lose weight, but there are also shocking cases of improper weight loss. Recently, the media revealed that the 32-year-old Korean star Rain originally had the enviable six-pack abs. However, his perfect body was diagnosed by doctors as being over 40 years old, 8 years older than his actual age. Nutritionists say that many people only care about the numbers on the scale, but it is the ignored visceral fat that causes chronic diseases.

Improper weight loss + stress can easily accelerate aging

What everyone is curious about is that Korean star Rain keeps exercising and maintains a perfect body shape, so logically, he should be in good health. However, a professional doctor found that due to overwork, improper weight loss and long-term great psychological pressure, his physical age was almost like that of a middle-aged man.

Chen Yunfan, a senior nutritionist and CEO of health management, said that the concept of weight loss must be correct. If you only care about the numbers on the scale, you are wrong. In fact, you should pay attention to how much fat is reduced. Fat is divided into subcutaneous fat and visceral fat. Visceral fat is related to the risk of metabolic-related diseases, such as the three high problems. Currently, textbooks do not clearly point out the reasonable amount of visceral fat, but the Ministry of Health and Welfare promotes the health of the people by looking at BMI, body fat percentage and waist circumference. In fact, all three indexes are closely related to visceral fat.

Don't take visceral fat lightly, it may become a killer of chronic diseases

In a healthy state, the body fat percentage of girls should be below 27%, and that of men should be below 23%. As for waist circumference, it should not exceed 80 cm for girls and 90 cm for boys. The above health indicators all mean that visceral fat should not exceed too much. Once visceral fat exceeds the standard, the risk of chronic diseases will increase, including cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

What testing methods can be used to determine if visceral fat is too high? Currently, medical centers or health check-up centers have equipment for testing, including using instruments to detect resistance values ​​and X-ray scans, using resistance values ​​to calculate muscle mass, and using resistance conducted by water to calculate body fat percentage; in addition, full-body X-ray scans can also accurately calculate body fat and muscle mass.

Reduce visceral fat and manage your overall health

How can we avoid excessive accumulation of visceral fat? Nutritionist Chen Yunfan said that visceral fat metabolism is related to blood sugar stability. Controlling blood sugar and keeping it stable at every meal is the key. Some people deliberately go on a diet or eat very little when losing weight. They may only lose water or muscle mass, not visceral fat. Only by eating at regular times and in regular amounts, eating a balanced diet, and eating less sweets as much as possible, can you avoid large fluctuations in blood sugar, and do moderate light exercise after meals, such as taking a 20-30 minute walk. In addition, customized meridian essential oil aromatherapy is also an option to help lose visceral fat.

In order to be thin and live a healthy life, modern people must pay attention to all-round "health management". Currently, some health management centers have launched a full set of customized course designs. They not only have cooking classes, but also invite well-known chef Zeng Liangquan to demonstrate health recipes and provide personalized low-GI lunch boxes so that busy office workers can also enjoy a healthy diet. In addition, they can also prepare essential oils suitable for individuals based on their personal health needs, and have acupoint massage performed by qualified and certified aromatherapists to make the intestines move smoothly, which helps promote abdominal fat metabolism and completely improve lifestyle.
