Slimtonic – Natural Ayurvedic Weight Loss Tonic Belly fat is known to be the most stubborn kind of fat. Science has different explanations for the same. The fat stored in the abdominal area consists of visceral fat that protects the internal organs. According to the study published in the Journal of Obesity (2010), visceral fat releases cytokines that interrupt normal metabolism, slowing down fat burning. The other contributing factor, as per another research from the American Journal of Physiology (2000), is that the abdominal fat has dense beta-2 receptors that prevent fat breakdown when activated, making fat burning more difficult. https://www.myslimtonic.com/blogs/5-easy-ways-to-reduce-belly-fat.php
