Fat or thin people must have fat in the stomach, even people whose stomachs are flat. This is normal, but there are a number of things to know about abdominal fat.
The danger of fat in the stomach
Fat is generally right under your skin. Other fats are deeper, around the heart, lungs, liver and other organs. This deeper fat is also called fat visceral, which might be a big problem, even for thin people.
What is the result of too much fat in the stomach?
Abdominal fat is one example of fat visceral, which is needed by the body. This fat provides a cushion for important organs in the body. But if you have too much fat visceral, including fat in the stomach, you may be prone to:

- type 2 diabetes
- heart disease
- dementia

Fat doesn't just stay under the skin. If you are overweight, your body will start storing fat in an unusual place.
How do you find out whether or not excess fat in the stomach?
The best way to determine how much fat visceral all you have is a CT scan or MRI. But there are simpler and cheaper ways to check it out.

The key to being healthy is to stay active and adopt a healthy lifestyle, no matter how big your body size is.
