By: Naturopathic Doctor ( N.D.)
The life threatening condition that you may not even know you have ...
Metabolic syndrome is a medical condition commonly known as "Syndrome X". It is made up of a group of combined conditions (known as a syndrome), which create an increased risk for heart disease, stroke, type II diabetes, fatty liver, and cancer. Metabolic syndrome is becoming more and more prevalent in North America and although the risk varies by ethnic background, it ranges from between 11 and 41%, with an average of around 25% of the population. That means that approximately 1/4 of North Americans are currently suffering from metabolic syndrome.
What are the risk factors?
The two most important risk factors for metabolic syndrome are central obesity, and insulin resistance (pre-diabetes, or diabetes type II). Other risk factors include: increased age, hormonal imbalances, lack of exercise, and genetic predisposition. Smoking can also increase the negative effects associated with this condition.
Central Obesity
The term "central obesity" means carrying extra weight around your upper body, particularly in the abdomen. People with central obesity are often commonly called "apple-shaped". One of the signs required for the diagnosis of metabolic syndrome is a waist circumference greater than or equal to 102cm (40in) in men, and 88cm (35in) in women, although the exact numbers vary by ethnic origin.
Insulin Resistance
This condition involves the body's tissues being unable to properly respond to insulin. It is often the predisposing condition that leads to type II diabetes. Because blood sugar levels remain high, while not enough sugar is able to enter the body's cells, this leaves the person feeling tired and hungry despite having just eaten. Also, blood fat levels rise as the body tries another means of feeding its starving cells. For more information on diabetes, please click here.
What are the signs and symptoms?
Metabolic syndrome can manifest in a number of different ways, but the most common symptoms include some combination of: high blood pressure, increased blood sugar, elevated triglycerides, low levels of HDL ("good") cholesterol.
