Obesity and insulin resistance have a bidirectional relationship. When excess fat, particularly visceral fat, accumulates excessively, the body becomes more likely to respond poorly to insulin. Conversely, insulin resistance forces the pancreas to secrete more insulin to maintain stable blood glucose levels. Over time, this can increase the risk of prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, fatty liver disease, dyslipidemia and metabolic syndrome.
Obesity can directly affect the liver, particularly through visceral fat, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and chronic inflammation. When excessive fat accumulates in the liver, patients may develop metabolic dysfunction–associated fatty liver disease. If not detected and controlled early, this condition may progress to steatohepatitis, liver fibrosis, cirrhosis and, in some cases, an increased risk of liver cancer.
Body fat percentage indicates what proportion of your body weight is made up of fat tissue. It is a useful indicator for assessing body composition, especially when body weight or BMI does not clearly show whether a person has more fat or more muscle. However, this index should be interpreted together with sex, age, waist circumference, BMI, and other health-related factors.
Visceral fat is one of the types of fat that requires attention when assessing health risks, especially in people with a large waist circumference, rapid weight gain, physical inactivity, elevated blood glucose, high blood lipids, or fatty liver disease. Unlike subcutaneous fat, which can be felt under the skin, visceral fat lies deep within the abdominal cavity and may affect the body’s metabolism.
