Starting as a resident ATC and growing into a full-time role, Erica’s dedication and expertise have been invaluable to the National Sports Medicine Institute. Her contributions as an athletic trainer, orthopaedic technician, and research coordinator have greatly enhanced our practice and residency program.

01/29/2024

Visceral fat is a type of fat that is stored deep within the abdominal cavity, surrounding internal organs such as the liver, pancreas, and intestines. It is distinct from subcutaneous fat, which is found just beneath the skin. Visceral fat is considered more harmful to health due to its proximity to vital organs and its active role in various physiological processes.

Metabolic Activity: Visceral fat is metabolically active, meaning it releases hormones and inflammatory substances into the bloodstream. This can have a direct impact on metabolic functions, including insulin sensitivity and blood sugar regulation.

Insulin Resistance: Excessive visceral fat is strongly associated with insulin resistance, a condition in which the body's cells become less responsive to the effects of insulin. This can lead to elevated blood sugar levels, potentially resulting in type 2 diabetes.

Inflammation: The hormones and substances released by visceral fat can contribute to chronic low-grade inflammation. Inflammation is linked to various health problems, including cardiovascular diseases, arthritis, and certain cancers.

Cardiovascular Health: Visceral fat has been identified as a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. It can lead to the accumulation of plaque in the arteries, increasing the risk of conditions like atherosclerosis, heart attack, and stroke.

Liver Health: Excess visceral fat is associated with fatty liver disease, a condition in which fat accumulates in the liver cells.

Hormonal Imbalances: Visceral fat can affect the balance of hormones in the body. For example, it can lead to increased production of cortisol (a stress hormone) and decrease the levels of adiponectin, a hormone that helps regulate insulin sensitivity.

Reducing visceral fat is an important aspect of improving overall health. Lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, a balanced diet, and stress management can help reduce visceral fat. Additionally, focusing on healthy habits can improve insulin sensitivity, lower inflammation, and mitigate the associated health risks.
