( 7 ) Internal Fat It is well known that taking a regular walk can decrease your waistline. Recent studies, however, indicate that it also decreases the risk of heart disease by reducing what is known as internal fat.
When people gain weight, they are usually most concerned about the unattractive fat that collects just under the skin. However, internal fat, which lies deeper within the body and surrounds vital organs, is far more damaging to the health. Unlike fat on the hips or thighs, internal fat releases unhealthy chemicals directly into the organs. The effects of this are especially harmful to the heart.
Recent studies show that even a walk of just 30 minutes a day can reduce internal fat by 10 to 20 percent. While this is good news for everyone, it is especially welcome for elderly and severely overweight people, who may not be suited to more intense exercise.
