In today's episode we're unpacking why many healthy-looking individuals - those with a seemingly normal Body Mass Index (BMI) - are unknowingly at a heightened risk for heart attacks and strokes. We discuss the crucial distinction between subcutaneous fat and dangerous visceral fat, often called "belly fat," which is stored around vital organs and drives chronic inflammation. Relying on BMI alone doesn't provide the whole picture. Drawing on a comprehensive new study involving 470,000 participants, we reveal that people with a normal BMI but high waist circumference have significantly elevated chances of high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, and high triglycerides. Dr. Stanfield explains why this vital metric is often forgotten in clinical practice and provides simple instructions on how you can easily measure your own risk at home.
