  • When combined with poor blood flow in the heart, intermuscular adipose tissue can lead to serious health risks, as per a new study.

The article from MSN discusses a study that has uncovered a new type of fat, known as myocellular fat, which resides between muscle fibers. This fat, unlike subcutaneous or visceral fat, is not visible externally but can pose significant health risks. The study, published in the journal "Nature Medicine," suggests that this hidden fat could be linked to metabolic diseases like diabetes and cardiovascular issues. Researchers found that individuals with higher levels of myocellular fat had poorer insulin sensitivity, which could lead to type 2 diabetes. The presence of this fat might also contribute to muscle weakness and reduced physical performance. The study emphasizes the need for further research to understand how this fat develops and its implications for health, potentially leading to new diagnostic methods and treatments for metabolic disorders.
