Are you one of those who exercise daily but are still unable to lose weight? According to recent research, obese people may find it harder to lose weight because their fat tissue becomes scarred and inflamed, reports Daily Express. The inflammation spills over from fat tissue into the bloodstream and is eventually measurable in the circulation by a blood test. With fat tissue not being able to do its most vital job, which is storing excess calories, the excess energy can be increasingly diverted from fat tissue to vital organs. The study’s author, Dr Katarina Kos, found that fat tissue is also stiffer and more rigid, and increased levels of scarring can make it harder to lose weight.
