Fat Reduction

Meaning

Fat reduction is the clinical and physiological process of decreasing the total mass of adipose tissue within the body, which is a critical goal in metabolic and hormonal health management. This reduction is often targeted at metabolically active, centrally located visceral fat, as its accumulation is strongly linked to insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, and adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Successful fat reduction is typically achieved through a sustained caloric deficit, combined with appropriate physical activity and, sometimes, hormonal optimization.
