To achieve the effect of burning visceral fat, start cycling. Cycling trips help in the fight not only with fat, but also with diabetes, say scientists from Australia.
Visceral fat hides deep in the abdomen, accumulating around internal organs, in particular, the liver and intestines. This can cause the development of very dangerous disorders in the body. Visceral fat, being biologically active, produces toxic chemicals and hormones that can influence the development of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, dementia, cancer, asthma, liver and gall bladder diseases, and hypertension.
"A bulging belly, which makes the figure look like an apple, is one of the typical signs that you have too much visceral fat in your body," doctors warn.
Experts from the Healthdirect Australia organization called cycling an effective way to burn visceral fat on the stomach, the Express writes.
According to their data, "30 minutes of daily cycling is enough to reduce visceral fat."
Doctors explain that cycling is a type of aerobic exercise that involves almost all the muscles of the body, including the heart. It also increases your metabolic rate, which means you'll continue to burn calories long after you get off the bike. A study found that cycling for half an hour every day would mean burning more than four kilograms of fat in a year.
"People who ride a bicycle for 30 or more minutes a day reduce their risk of developing diabetes by 40 percent," health workers reported.
The advantage of using a bicycle is that it gently affects the joints, and this type of physical activity is suitable even for people suffering from arthritis. In addition, bicycle trips contribute to the release of "hormones of happiness" (endorphins), which provide a person with a psychologically positive state and protection from stress.
