Guest guest Posted May 5, 2001 Report Share Posted May 5, 2001 Yes, the basic concept is that the fat is around the abdomen. People with central obesity carry most of the excess weight around their mid-section. This is different from upper obesity in which the fat is carried at the top of the body and is known as " fat head " . More males are prone to central obesity. Draw your own gender conclusions about upper obesity. in Seattle yes, it's a joke ----- Original Message ----- > Just an observation, but wouldn't ACS be more of a danger amongst " apple " > shaped bodies?
