You must have seen various products in the market that claim to burn belly fat. But the million-dollar question is can you just lose belly fat only?
There is someone who is struggling with belly fat. So, they try different methods to reduce difficult belly fat like a “fat-losing belt” or that special cream that would magically burn all your extra tummy fat. They do that till they face the harsh reality that these things never work. People often target a specific area where they want to reduce fat, for example, on thighs or on their tummy. This targeting of a specific area to reduce fat is called spot-reducing fat.
The truth behind the myth of spot-reducing fat
Experts and scientists have proved this numerous times that spot-reducing fat is quite impossible. The myth has gained prominence due to many infomercials that are playing in the dead of night. This myth has a grain of truth though. Try to touch the part of your body which has the maximum fat deposit, you would notice that that part of the body is cooler than the other parts of your body. That is because there is a minimized blood flow in that part thanks to a fat deposit. So, most spot fat-reducing products rely on this small piece of information and convince you of ways that increase the flow of blood to areas where fat is deposited. That should do the trick, right? No, it doesn’t because the effect is so minuscule that you won’t notice any real difference.
