Visceral Fat Level Estimator

Visceral fat is a type of body fat stored within the abdominal cavity. It's located near several vital organs, including the liver, stomach, and intestines. It can also build up in the arteries.

High levels of visceral fat are associated with an increased risk for serious health problems, including type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and certain types of cancer. This calculator provides a simplified, non-medical estimate of your potential visceral fat level based on common risk factors.

How to Measure:

• Waist: Measure around the narrowest part of your torso, typically just above your belly button.
• Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and buttocks, ensuring the tape is level.

This is an estimate, not a medical diagnosis. The only way to definitively measure visceral fat is with a CT or MRI scan. Consult a healthcare professional for a true assessment of your health risks.
