Very, very bad news for porkers like me. Even "modest" weight gain (nine pounds) taking the form of increased visceral fat ("organ" fat in the abdomen, not subcutaneous fat) is closely linked to significant loss of arterial function. The good news is that it's reversible -- on losing the weight again, arterial function returns to normal.
