<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Fat cells have an important [[physiology|physiological]] role in maintaining triglyceride and free fatty acid levels, as well as determining [[insulin resistance]]. [[Abdomen|Abdominal]] fat has a different [[metabolism|metabolic]] profile—being more prone to induce insulin resistance. This explains to a large degree why [[central obesity]] is a marker of impaired glucose tolerance and is an independent risk factor for [[cardiovascular disease]] (even in the absence of [[diabetes mellitus]] and [[hypertension]]). Studies of female monkeys at [[Wake Forest University]] (2009) discovered that individuals with higher [[Stress (biological)|stress]] have higher levels of visceral fat in their bodies. This suggests a possible cause-and-effect link between the two, wherein stress promotes the accumulation of visceral fat, which in turn causes hormonal and metabolic changes that contribute to heart disease and other health problems.</div>FuzzyBot
