Fat metabolism dysfunction is a significant factor in obesity, where the body struggles to efficiently process and store fat. In individuals with obesity, metabolic pathways that regulate fat storage and fat burning can become disrupted. This often leads to an excess accumulation of fat, especially in the abdominal area, which is associated with a higher risk of developing cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes. Insulin resistance, a key metabolic disturbance, often accompanies fat metabolism dysfunction, making it harder for the body to use glucose for energy and leading to increased fat storage. Addressing fat metabolism dysfunction involves improving insulin sensitivity, increasing fat oxidation, and promoting healthy lifestyle choices such as exercise and a balanced diet to manage weight effectively.
