Active fat
Carrying too much fat around your middle is
much more dangerous to your heart than you might think. Most
people think it's carrying around all that extra weight that
puts strain on your heart, but it's actually the fat cells
themselves that are really active, producing toxic substances that
cause damage which can lead to heart disease.
This is why it is referred to as ‘Active Fat’.

insides and lead to type 2 diabetes and various forms of
