Imagine having unwanted guests infiltrating your home and wreaking havoc on your belongings. Well, the same goes for your muscles. A recent study suggests that the presence of fat infiltrating your muscles can have a dangerously detrimental effect on your health.

It’s like an unwanted guest rummaging through your pantry and eating all your favorite snacks. The implications can be dire. Researchers believe that myosteatosis could result in weakened muscles, compromised metabolism, and increased risk of chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. So, it’s not just about losing belly fat; we also need to pay attention to these slinking infiltrators in our muscles!
