The BBC decided to research weight loss and they shared their results in the program 10 Things You Need to Know About Losing Weight. Medical journalist Michael Mosley decided to determine which methods of weight loss really work, based on biology. The documentary first looked at visceral fat (also known as belly fat), the internal fat that surrounds the internal organs, and is very unhealthy. Visceral fat an cause heart disease, cancer and type 2 diabetes. A larger waist is the first sign that you are carrying too much visceral fat.
(advertisement) Michael Mosley had a scan to measure fat and found that he was carrying a lot of visceral fat, so this made him more determined to lose weight to ensure that he did not develop diabetes like his father did before him.
