Bodies of men and women have a different primary fat storage. In men, fat mostly "nested" in the abdomen.
Stomach fat is the storage. The body parts that can be likened to the trunk of the car that can be filled with a variety of travel gear. The difference is, if a man can not control his diet and not moving, "trunk" will be cramped.
When the trunk was already full belly alias, then the body will begin to store fat elsewhere. "If the storage area in the stomach is full, fat will start to accumulate in the liver, pancreas, and muscles. The condition is actually very unhealthy," said Dr.Zhaoping Li, director of the Center for Human Nutrition at the University of California, USA.
In contrast to women. Because of the hormone estrogen, women tend to store fat in the hips and legs, especially thighs. Fat in the storage area can provide energy while pregnant or nursing women.
"Genetically women have more capacity to store fat. It is part of survival," said Li.
Storage of fat in the hips and thighs is not associated with health risks as well as belly fat. However, if the fat storage area is full, then the woman will begin to accumulate fat in the abdomen.
When the stomach area was already filled with fat, the body will begin to store fat in other parts, including the internal organs. Thus the risk of chronic disease increases.
In addition, when a woman enters menopause, levels of estrogen in the body decreases. When this happens, the body will stop storing fat in the thighs and pelvis, and switch to the abdomen. This explains why older women are also usually visible bulge.
Danger of fat deposits in the stomach has long been revealed. In addition to diabetes risk, the risk of diabetes, cancer, and heart disease also increases.

Genetic factors and lifestyle also has an effect on how large fat deposits in the abdomen. For example, Chinese people tend to be slimmer stomach. Even so, 12 percent of adults in China suffer from diabetes type 1 and 2 according to the data in 2013.
Meanwhile, the number of diabetic children and adults in the United States, only 9 per cent, even though they are bigger belly.
They are the size of the circumference of the stomach is more than 90 cm in men and 80 cm in women are advised to increase physical activity. Research has shown that when we exercise regularly belly is the first part of reduced fat.
