The Claim
Reduction of visceral adipose tissue decreases inflammatory signaling and restores insulin sensitivity, leading to improved systemic metabolic health.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
Losing visceral fat reduces inflammation and restores normal insulin function, which improves overall metabolic health.
See the scientific wording
Reduction of visceral adipose tissue improves systemic metabolic health by decreasing inflammatory signaling and restoring insulin sensitivity.
Excess fat around the organs releases specific molecules that block insulin action in muscles and liver, while also triggering immune cells to release inflammatory signals that further disrupt metabolism.
What the research says
1 studyWhen people have too much belly fat, certain molecules inside that fat get activated and make it harder for the body to use insulin properly, leading to higher blood sugar. This study found those molecules are more active in people with insulin resistance.
