What is Belly Fat?

Belly fat is the fat that lies around our stomach area, also known as subcutaneous fat, as it’s located just under the skin. Although belly fat is often associated with overall weight gain, some people may suffer from stubborn belly fat, which won’t budge despite a healthy diet and exercise.

There are a few reasons behind belly fat. Age is one cause as it tends to mean our metabolism slows down which makes weight gain easier and weight loss, harder.
Often hormonal imbalances can impact where fat is stored too, with hormones such as cortisol- the stress hormone- insulin and oestrogen being the primary hormones involved here. Too much cortisol caused by long-term stress can lead to fat storage in the belly area whilst changes in the amount of oestrogen, such as the decrease which occurs during menopause, can also lead to a build up of belly fat.


Similarly, when our body becomes resistant to insulin -a hormone which controls glucose levels in our blood, then fat is more likely to build up around the stomach area.
Another cause of stubborn belly fat is genetics.

Our genes can influence where fat is stored on the body, so if other family members suffer from belly fat, then it’s likely you will too.
