Visceral Fat and Stress: The Hidden Link Nobody’s Talking About

On this episode of The Model Health Show, we discuss how chronic stress can impact your overall health, specifically its correlation with increased visceral fat and fat around the heart. High levels of cortisol, a stress hormone, play a significant role in these effects, making stress optimization crucial for metabolic health and fat loss. Understanding and managing stress is vital for improving mental health and preventing adverse physiological outcomes.

Featuring insights from leading experts in stress, cortisol, psychology, and healthy aging, this episode breaks down the difference between healthy stress and chronic stress, how cortisol promotes fat storage around the midsection, and practical ways to lower stress through better sleep, nutrition, movement, and lifestyle habits. If belly fat has been hard to lose, managing stress may be the missing link.
