#Visceralfat

A new review by US-based clinical dietitians spotlights spinach as a leading dietary choice to reduce visceral fat, the deep belly fat linked to higher risks of diabetes, heart disease, and certain cancers. For Thai audiences, this offers practical guidance as obesity-related illnesses rise in the region. Researchers emphasize that combining healthy eating with lifestyle changes can address this silent risk affecting millions across Southeast Asia, including Thailand.

Visceral fat sits around internal organs and is more dangerous than surface fat. As Thailand faces an aging population and urban living that encourages sedentary behavior and high-calorie diets, medical experts warn about escalating metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. Understanding and preventing visceral fat has become a public health priority for Thai families.

A recent review by US-based registered dietitians places spinach at the forefront of dietary strategies to reduce visceral fat, the deep belly fat that increases risk for diabetes, heart disease, and certain cancers (EatingWell). This finding offers practical guidance for Thai readers invested in combating chronic diseases closely tied to rising obesity rates. The review echoes growing global evidence that a combination of healthy eating habits and lifestyle changes can help tackle a silent health risk affecting millions across Southeast Asia—including Thailand.

A growing body of evidence points to a simple food as an ally against stubborn belly fat: spinach. Dietitians cited in a recent consumer feature highlight that regular intake of this leafy green may help reduce visceral fat—the dangerous fat stored around internal organs linked to diabetes, heart disease, metabolic syndrome, and certain cancers.

This development is especially relevant for Thai readers. Thailand has seen rising rates of metabolic health issues and obesity over the past decade. Public health authorities warn that central obesity is a major risk factor for non-communicable diseases. Since visceral fat is more metabolically active than subcutaneous fat, reducing it is a priority for improving national health.

A growing body of research now points to a surprising hero in the battle against stubborn belly fat: spinach. According to dietitians cited in a recent feature by EatingWell, regularly including this leafy green in your diet may help reduce visceral fat, the harmful type of fat stored deep within the abdomen that is closely linked with chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, metabolic syndrome, and certain cancers (EatingWell).

A recent study from the Capital University of Physical Education and Sports in Beijing has drawn global attention by showing that the order of workouts may influence fat loss, especially visceral fat linked to heart disease and other chronic conditions. For Thai readers, these findings offer practical insights to optimize gym routines with science-backed strategies.

The study, announced in mid-June 2025, followed 45 overweight men aged 18-30 over 12 weeks. Participants were assigned to three groups: cycling before resistance training, resistance training before cycling, or continuing their usual activity as a control. After three months, both exercise groups lost weight and gained muscle, but the weights-first group achieved notably greater reductions in total and visceral fat.

A new study led by researchers at the Capital University of Physical Education and Sports in Beijing has sparked interest worldwide, suggesting that the order in which we exercise may make a substantial difference in fat loss—especially the harmful visceral fat associated with heart disease and other chronic illnesses. For Thai readers seeking to optimise their gym routines or find science-backed weight management strategies, these findings shed light on simple tweaks that could lead to more effective fat burning and better health outcomes.

A new wave of research, highlighted by a UK-based National Health Service (NHS) general practitioner on national television, is upending conventional wisdom about the fight against stubborn belly fat. Contrary to the popular belief that only high-intensity workouts can help shift the bulge around the midsection, emerging evidence now supports the power of slow, steady exercise—like leisurely walks—in burning dangerous abdominal fat, particularly for older adults and postmenopausal women (Get Surrey).

A fresh wave of health research is reshaping how we think about belly fat. A UK NHS general practitioner discussed on national television that slow, steady movement—such as leisurely walks—can effectively reduce visceral fat, particularly for older adults and postmenopausal women. This challenges the belief that only intense workouts burn stubborn belly fat.

For Thai audiences, the message is practical and empowering. With rising rates of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease, accessible activities that fit daily life are essential. In Thai cities, many people face stress and sedentary patterns, especially older women who are most at risk for abdominal fat accumulation.
