Overcoming Metabolic Syndrome

Overcoming Metabolic Syndrome

Twenty-seven Percent of Americans Have Metabolic Syndrome


It’s now estimated that over 55 million Americans have metabolic syndrome; however, if you’re like most Americans, you may not have ever heard of the syndrome much less understand how it increases your risk of heart disease and stroke. Metabolic syndrome actually is a cluster of disorders, all of which are affected by insulin resistance.


If you have three or more of the following, you considered as having metabolic syndrome:

  • A waistline of 40 inches or more for men and 35 inches or more for women
  • High triglyceride levels
  • High blood pressure
  • Elevated fasting blood  sugar levels
  • Low HDL cholesterol levels (the good cholesterol) 

There are no specific symptoms of metabolic syndrome, but it takes a toll on health. People with metabolic syndrome are 3.5 times more likely to die of a heart-related ailment and 5 times more likely to develop type 2 diabetes.
The good news is that you can overcome this deadly syndrome. I have treated thousands of patients with metabolic syndrome; I know how to cut through the confusion and give you the basics about how you can restore your health.
