Everyone wants to lose the part on the
00:00:01
belly. Is there not like an exercise I
00:00:03
can do just to burn the part on the
00:00:04
belly?
00:00:05
There's no exercise. Visceral fat's a
00:00:07
little bit different. It's like a whole
00:00:08
different organ. Subcutaneous fat is a
00:00:11
storage facility. It is when we overeat
00:00:13
calories, we will drive fat under the
00:00:15
skin and it's kind of genetically
00:00:17
determined. Females tend to gain about
00:00:18
their hips and thighs. Okay. And
00:00:20
actually that hip and thigh fat is
00:00:22
protective for cardiovascular disease in
00:00:24
a premenopausal woman. Not in men but in
00:00:27
women. But when that fat shifts to the
00:00:29
intraabdominal cavity, that fat is much
00:00:31
more metabolically active than the fat
00:00:33
under our skin and it creates these
00:00:35
pro-inflammatory cytoines. And then you
00:00:37
end up in this negative feedback cycle.
00:00:39
Your liver starts becoming
00:00:40
dysfunctional. Insulin resistance
00:00:42
increases that drives more fat to the
00:00:44
visceral cavity, increases inflammation,
00:00:46
and it just goes on and on and on.
00:00:48
That fat that's really inside the
00:00:49
abdominal cavity is what we're talking
00:00:50
about. That visceral fat, which is the
00:00:52
worst kind.
00:00:53
But what about liposuction? Can't I just
00:00:54
suck it out? People are doing all kinds
00:00:55
with their stuff.
00:00:56
Under the skin, not in your gut.
00:00:58
The stuff under the skin.
00:00:59
Oh,
00:01:00
lipos suction it out. Is that a good
00:01:02
idea or a bad idea?
00:01:03
No, it'll come back. You have to create
00:01:06
change in order to you have to instigate
00:01:09
change within your environment and your
00:01:11
lifestyle.
00:01:11
If you get liposuction and you change
00:01:12
nothing else, that fat will come right
00:01:15
back. All these things we're talking
00:01:16
about, it sounds like a lot of
00:01:18
instructions and it is actually, but
00:01:21
when you layer them on, it becomes your
00:01:23
lifestyle. It's not a diet. It's not an
00:01:26
exercise program. It's just how I live.
