Metabolic Syndrome

Overview

[2]

Metabolic syndrome has occasionally gone by other names.

It was originally called syndrome X, or insulin resistance syndrome.

Sometimes it is abbreviated as MetS.

One sign that you might have metabolic syndrome, however, is easy to identify on your own.

Abdominal obesity, sometimes called visceral obesity, is the accumulation of fat around the midsection.

Instead, there is a wide range of treatment options for each individual component of the condition.

By addressing each condition with targeted lifestyle changes and medications, you could treat and improve metabolic syndrome overall.

You will likely have to stick with the changes youve made to make it keep metabolic syndrome in remission.

In the United States, metabolic syndrome does not affect all adults equally.
