Chapters
Certain ethnicities, particularly Asians, have a lower tolerance for fat and are more prone to storing it as visceral fat, which is more harmful than subcutaneous fat. This is due to genetic factors and a lower "fat threshold." This difference in fat storage makes them more susceptible to metabolic issues even with smaller weight gains compared to other ethnicities.
  • Asians are more prone to visceral fat due to genetics and a lower fat threshold.
  • Visceral fat is more harmful than subcutaneous fat.
  • The healthiest place to store fat is subcutaneous fat.
  • The most problematic place to store fat is visceral fat.
