Visceral fat accumulates around your liver, pancreas, heart, and other organs without showing on the outside. Doctors often dismiss a fatty liver as normal when it actually signals a health problem. This hidden fat impairs organ function and poses serious medical risks.
Whenever there's a conversation about fat, we always think outside of our bodies. Like, we can look down and we see the fat and it's, oh, I gotta get rid of this belly fat. People don't talk about the fat that is hiding in the liver, the pancreas, the tongue, the heart. Yeah, there's fat that surrounds itself around the heart. Yeah, you can have a fatty tongue and a fatty pancreas. And that is what visceral fat does, is it surrounds itself around the organs. It causes problems with your actual organs. And I want to point that out because it's very important. And if somebody comes back and they have a fatty liver on a scan, the doctors may act like it's normal, but it's actually not.
