Abstract in brief

  • Visceral obesity and metabolic syndrome involve a group of interconnected metabolic disorders, including insulin resistance, changes in glucose and lipid metabolism, high blood pressure, and increased visceral fat.
  • Insulin resistance is commonly linked to each component of the syndrome and may be a key underlying cause, with visceral obesity playing a central role by increasing free fatty acids that impair insulin action.
  • Weight gain is a strong predictor of developing metabolic syndrome, suggesting that weight loss or prevention of weight gain can reduce the risk and effectively treat visceral obesity, thereby lowering cardiovascular risk.
