Weight loss hypnotherapy in Leeds

Is your belly fat going to kill you?

Muffin tops and pot bellies are in the news. The Mirror website reports that a study of 15,000 patients in the US found that those with fat spilling over the waistline – men or women – have higher mortality rates.

Even those with oversized bellies who were otherwise not overweight were in the danger zone for developing life-threatening illnesses.

Lead author Dr Francisco Lopez-Jimense says: “Our analyses show normal-weight adults with central obesity have the worst long-term survival compared with participants with normal fat distribution, regardless of BMI (body mass index).

Unlike fat elsewhere on the body, it is thought that belly fat is an indicator of fat on internal organs that raises the risk of killer illnesses.

The good news, though, is that belly fat is very noticeable – which in turn means people can acknowledge the problem and do something about it.

And that is the fundamental principle of my weight-loss programmes at Leeds Hypnotherapy Clinic: You have a choice. You don’t have to be fat.
