How does belly fat increase?

Same BUT dangerous: Belly fat accumulates like in any other fat depot, but that fat secretes some nasty chemicals. Resistin=insulin resistance and diabetes, interleukins ; tumor necrosis factor=inflammation and cancer! we used to think fat cells just increased in size. We now know that fat cells get larger but then they split and accumulate. Regular sit-ups burns upper ab fat, leg raises burn lower ab fat.

Multiples: The adipose cells continue to multiple through hyperplasia and each cell grows by hyper trophy. If you have excess calories than you use than the body stores as fat. Abdominal girth will also increase as your intestines enlarge and you accumulate internal fat.
