A member asked:
I am overall pretty skinny and rather little underweight. 60kg at 5ft11inch height. however, lately got visible protruding belly fat . i drink lot of soda drinks. can soda cause a particular increase in stomach fat only? what's the solution now?

Yes, it can even you are thin. Excess carbohydrate from soda sugar will turn into belly fat if you are inactive and not spending the calories. You can see those bellies in people who drink a lot of beers which provide a lot of excess calories. You need to drop the soda drinks & start exercise with particularly focusing on the trunk exercise then increase protein intake for building up the muscles.
