ELI5: Why is the belly the first part of our body to get fat?
gpt
It isn't, it is the first noticeable part of the body to get fat, fat deposits occur around the body, visceral fat is body fat that is stored within the abdominal cavity and is therefore stored around a number of important internal organs such as the liver, pancreas and intestines. Due to there location depositing fat here is easy for the body, in the early stages it doesn't impair movement or balance so make a good place to store extra fat.
