Cabbage-apple juice might reduce dangerous belly fat quickly

This tricky location along with the fat’s properties can boost one’s risk of diabetes, dementia and certain cancers.
Unlike subcutaneous fat, visceral fat is not the jiggly substance right under the skin that you can pinch; this type of fat is hidden deep inside the belly. There, it can lead to serious health problems. According to research published in the journal Nutrients, the drink that may help reduce the dangerous belly fat is apple-cabbage juice. The study found that the fruit and vegetable drink was able to cut visceral fat.
The researchers set out to observe the effects of cabbage-apple juice on obesity in rat models. Fermented foods have been previously linked to a lower amount of visceral fat. From sauerkraut to kimchi, fermented foods use anaerobic processes during which microorganisms, such as yeast and bacteria, break down food components.
One thing to consider is that this is only one study and it’s been conducted on animal models instead of humans so more research might be needed.
