Metabolic Syndrome: Understanding the Risk and Treatment Published by Health News Wires
Boston, MA (PRWEB) October 01, 2013 -- A new report and video from Health News Wires titled Metabolic Syndrome: Understanding the Risk and Treatment describes the risk, dangers and treatment associated with metabolic syndrome.
Metabolic syndrome is a confusing and concerning set of risk factors that significantly increase the risk of future heart disease; much more than any one risk factor alone. According to the American Heart Association, an estimated 35% of Americans are diagnosed with metabolic syndrome, greatly increasing the chances of insulin resistance, heart disease, diabetes, stroke and hardening of the arteries.
There are many complex factors contributing to the development of metabolic syndrome, the main contributors to this condition are genetics, lack of physical activity, poor diet, diabetes and being overweight or obese.
Considering the many different symptoms and risk factors leading to metabolic syndrome, diagnosing the condition can prove rather difficult. Common indicators used to diagnose metabolic syndrome include: increased waist circumference, elevated blood sugar levels, elevated triglyceride levels, and elevated blood pressure.
According to Michael Healey of Health News Wires, “Metabolic syndrome is 100% preventable and reversible. Following a diet and exercise plan designed to burn fat, lose weight and lower blood sugar is the best way to prevent metabolic syndrome.”
