Experts Highlight Hidden Metabolic Risks of Visceral Fat in Indian Men

Experts Highlight Hidden Metabolic Risks of Visceral Fat in Indian MenPreviousNext

Indian men often exhibit a 'thin-fat' phenotype, characterized by normal weight but excessive visceral fat around the abdomen, increasing metabolic health risks. Experts highlight that this hidden fat, linked to conditions like the MONO phenotype, is not reflected by BMI or appearance alone. Lifestyle factors such as stress, irregular eating, and lack of exercise exacerbate the issue. Specialists recommend sustainable habits including balanced nutrition, regular exercise, and stress management to improve metabolic health beyond mere weight control.
