Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

If your waist circumference is more than 102 centimeters in men, and if your waist circumference is more than 88 centimeters in women, you are at increased risk of heart disease. So people who are listening to this podcast, they can do this simple test by themselves in the morning. They can just measure the waist circumference around their belly button.

If it is more than 100 to 102 centimeters in men, Then it is a wake up call for you. It is an indication that the adipose tissue overflow is happening. And adipose tissue is not bad. You need adipose tissue. Adipose tissue releases a hormone called adiponectin.

And what this does is similar to what we talked about in starvation, it releases a lot of hormonal regulations where all the fat tissues are getting broken down into energy and you can use them for when you are not having enough food, similar to our ancestors during fasting and hunting time.

But what is happening is and that adipose tissue, adiponectin hormone regulation happens very well if it is subcutaneous fat. when it is flowing into visceral fat, the adiponectin goes down. And when adiponectin goes down, the transmembrane fatty acid reflux is the problem with this metabolic profile that I talked about with increased triglycerides and increased LDL and decreased HDL.

And when that goes up, and that is where the underlying problem of your plaque formation and the blood vessels supplying the heart and that increases the risk of hypertension and heart disease and everything. So it is bottom line, it is very clear that visceral fat increases the risk of heart disease. This is what I explain to all my patients on the clinical level. Okay.
