Estrogen levels have a direct impact on fat cell storage, especially abdominal fat. Fat cells produce extra estrogen, then the excess estrogen signals your body to store more fat cells. This exchange often creates a vicious cycle of estrogen imbalance and weight gain around the midsection.
Identification
Abdominal fat is identified as visceral or subcutaneous fatty tissue, but not all belly fat is the same. Subcutaneous fat is the top layer of fat you can pinch with your fingers, which is not a danger to your inner organs. Intra-abdominal fat, also called visceral fat, is the kind of belly fat most dangerous to your health. It has been linked to insulin resistance, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Visceral fat is located deep within the abdomen and wraps around your inner organs. The location of visceral belly fat poses a direct threat to the functioning ability of inner organs, resulting in gall bladder issues, fatty liver disease and other organ disorders.
