Treatments

Excess fat refers to the presence of too much body fat, especially beyond what is considered healthy for an individual. This extra fat can accumulate in various areas of the body, commonly around the waist and abdomen. Having excess fat is often associated with an increased risk of health issues such as heart disease, diabetes, and other metabolic conditions. It can result from factors like an unhealthy diet, lack of physical activity, genetics, hormonal imbalances, or a combination of these.
