What is Metabolic Syndrome?
Metabolic Syndrome is a cluster of conditions that occur together, increasing your risk of heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes. These conditions include high blood pressure, high blood sugar, excess body fat around the waist, and abnormal cholesterol or triglyceride levels. The syndrome is largely linked to obesity and inactivity. When these issues appear together, they amplify the risk of chronic health problems. Recognizing the syndrome early helps in preventing serious complications. With lifestyle modifications and medical guidance, you can manage or even reverse many aspects of this condition.
