Belly fat in women: How to keep it off

Belly fat hasn't always been your problem — you've worried more about hips and thighs. Now your midsection's making up for lost time. What's up?

By Mayo Clinic staff

Whether it's because of heredity, hormonal changes or aging-related weight gain, many women notice an increase in belly fat as they grow older — and especially after menopause. Gaining fat in your abdomen is particularly unhealthy when compared with other locations in your body. Excess belly fat increases your risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes and certain types of cancers. The good news is that a few lifestyle changes and some targeted abdominal exercises can help you battle your belly bulge.

The midsection matters

Gaining weight in your abdomen does more harm than simply making your waistband too tight. While putting on weight in general can have negative effects on your health, abdominal weight gain is particularly unhealthy. Too much belly fat increases your risk of:

• Heart disease
• Breast cancer
• Diabetes
• Metabolic syndrome
• Gallbladder problems
• High blood pressure
• Colorectal cancer

Obesity

Obesity is a medical condition in which excess body fat has accumulated to the extent that it may have an adverse effect on health, leading to reduced life expectancy and/or increased health problems. Body mass index (BMI), a measurement which compares weight and height, defines people as overweight (pre-obese) if their BMI is between 25 kg/m² and 30 kg/m², and obese when it is greater than 30 kg/m²

Obesity increases the likelihood of various diseases, particularly heart disease, type 2 diabetes,breathing difficulties during sleep, certain types of cancer, and osteoarthritis.Obesity is most commonly caused by a combination of excessive dietary calories, lack of physical activity, andgenetic susceptibility, although a few cases are caused primarily by genes, endocrine disorders,medications or psychiatric illness. Evidence to support the view that some obese people eat little yet gain weight due to a slow metabolism is limited; on average obese people have a greater energy expenditure than their thin counterparts due to the energy required to maintain an increased body mass.

Myths about Nutrition :-

Many people have misconceptions on certain food nutrition as given below:

1. You should not eat fat as all fats are bad: Wrong.
   Fat is an essential requirement for our body. However, fat consumption in excess is not good. Note that all fats are not bad. Saturated fats and trans fats are bad, whereas monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats are good. Eating 45 gram (1.5 ounces) nuts per day along with a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol may reduce the risk of heart disease, according the FDA.
2. Nuts are fattening: Wrong.
   Nuts are high in polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats and plant sterols which lower LDL cholesterol.
3. Brown sugar is harmless: Wrong.
   The brown sugar and white sugar contain almost the same nutrition. The brown sugar is nothing but white sugar with added molasses. Some make of dark brown sugar having properties similar to jaggery (gud is good.
4. Don't eat sugar, it will cause diabetes: Wrong.
   Type 2 diabetes is caused due to an inactive lifestyle, excessive body weight and a high fat diet. If you don't have diabetes, eating sugar will not make you diabetic. However, if you have diabetes, then you should control your suage intake.

All Fats are badIt's a long-held nutrition myth that all fats are bad. But the fact is, we all need fat. Fats aid nutrient absorption and nerve transmission, and they help to maintain cell membrane integrity - to name just a few of their useful purposes. However, when consumed in excessive amounts, fats contribute to weight gain, heart disease and certain types of cancers.
Not all fats are created equal. Some fats can actually help promote good health, while others increase the risk for heart disease. The key is to replace bad fats (saturated fats and trans fats) with good fats (monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats).
