This double effect worsens blood pressure, cholesterol triglycerides, and blood sugar — contributing to what is known as the metabolic syndrome. Fat cells that have reached their capacity to store extra energy as a healthy reserve start to cause havoc by releasing free fatty acids and in turn worsens insulin resistance, that steepens the decline in health. However in many cases if we can reduce visceral fat, rebuild muscle, and reach a caloric deficit, we can reverse many of these effects.
