Not all of the individual factors present symptoms, so the only way to identify metabolic syndrome is:
A cholesterol test
A blood sugar test
Have your blood pressure taken
Measure your waist circumference.
Insulin resistance is considered to be the key factor in Metabolic Syndrome as it can affect your cholesterol, triglycerides and blood pressure.
It is the term used when your body’s use of insulin isn’t efficient enough to keep your blood sugar at a normal level, but the increased level isn’t high enough to be classed as diabetes.
The individual indicators of Metabolic Syndrome can all be easily controlled or avoided by natural methods or by medication.
Don’t wait until you are classed as having Metabolic Syndrome, act now and reduce your risk.
It’s Your Heart. It’s Your Life.
It’s Your Choice.
