Are skinny people free of belly fat?

Medicine Net says that this is not necessarily true. Skinny people may have unhealthy stomach fat, however, it may be hidden.

What does research show?

Research has revealed that ‘fat may be folded deep inside the belly around the stomach organs’. This fat may however only be seen via CT or MRI imaging.

So what does this mean for skinny people?

This means that skinny people may have the same health risks as someone with a more visible stomach region, according to researchers.
