Answer:

There are many reasons why people gain belly fat, including poor diet, lack of exercise, and stress. Improving nutrition, increasing activity, reducing stress, and making other lifestyle changes can all help people lose unwanted belly fat.

Belly fat refers to fat around the abdomen. There are two types of belly fat:

Visceral: This fat surrounds a person’s organs.

Subcutaneous: This is fat that sits under the skin.

Being overweight is one of the leading causes of major diseases.

Excess belly fat can increase the risk of:

heart disease

heart attacks

high blood pressure

stroke

type 2 diabetes

asthma

breast cancer

colon cancer

Alzheimer’s disease and other types of dementia

Causes of belly fat

Common causes of excess belly fat include the following:

1. Poor diet

Sugary food, such as cakes and candy, and drinks, such as soda and fruit juice, can:

cause weight gain

slow a person’s metabolism

reduce a person’s ability to burn fat

Low-protein, high-carb diets may also affect weight. Protein helps a person feel fuller for longer, and people who do not include lean protein in their diet may eat more food overall.

Trans fats, in particular, can cause inflammation and may lead to obesity. Trans fats are in many foods, including fast food and baked goods, for example, muffins or crackers.

The American Heart Association recommend that people replace trans fats with healthful whole-grain foods, monounsaturated fats, and polyunsaturated fats.

Reading food labels can help a person determine whether their food contains trans fats.

2. Too much alcohol

Consuming excess alcohol can cause a variety of health problems, including liver disease and inflammation.

A 2015 report on alcohol consumption and obesity in the journal Current Obesity Reports indicates that drinking excess alcohol causes males to gain weight around their bellies, though study results in females are inconsistent.

3. Lack of exercise

If a person consumes more calories than they burn off, they will put on weight.

An inactive lifestyle makes it hard for a person to get rid of excess fat, particularly around the abdomen.

4. Stress

A steroid hormone known as cortisol helps the body control and deal with stress. When a person is in a dangerous or high-pressure situation, their body releases cortisol, and this can impact on their metabolism.

People often reach for food for comfort when they feel stressed, and cortisol causes the excess calories to remain around the belly and other areas of the body for later use.

5. Genetics

There is some evidence that a person’s genes can play a part in whether or not they become obese. Scientists think genes can influence behavior, metabolism, and the risk of developing obesity-related diseases.

Similarly, environmental factors and behavior also play a role in the likelihood of people becoming obese.

6. Poor sleep

A study in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine links weight gain to short sleep duration, which could lead to an excess of belly fat.

Both poor quality and short duration of sleep can play a part in the development of abdominal fat.

Not getting enough good sleep may, potentially, lead to unhealthful eating behaviors, such as emotional eating.
