Definition and Risk of Metabolic Syndrome
Metabolic syndrome means that all adult diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, and hyperlipidemia appear in one person. Metabolic syndrome patients' risk of coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, and stroke is three times higher than that of normal people. Today, we will learn about the scary diseases and metabolic syndrome that cause all kinds of serious diseases.
Criteria for diagnosing metabolic syndrome
If three or more of the items below fall under, it is diagnosed as metabolic syndrome.
Waist size: Men's 90 cm or more and women's 85 cm or more
Neutral fat: 150 mg/dl or more
Good (HDL) cholesterol: less than 40mg/dl for men and less than 50mg/dl for women
Blood pressure: 130/85mmHg or higher or taking high blood pressure medication
Fasting blood sugar: If you are diagnosed with more than 100 mg/dl or diabetes
The main cause of metabolic syndrome is increased insulin resistance
High insulin resistance is cited as the main cause of metabolic syndrome. Insulin originally helps our body maintain normal blood sugar by lowering blood sugar, but when insulin resistance increases, glucose cannot be properly supplied to muscles and adipocytes. Eventually, the risk of developing metabolic syndrome, which causes various adult diseases as well as salinity and moisture in the body, increases. The causes of increased insulin resistance are abdominal obesity caused by overeating (especially visceral fat-type abdominal obesity), fatty liver, heredity, stress aging, and low physical activity, and among them, eating habits and physical activity are the most important things to pay attention to.
To Lower insulin resistance
1. Weight management and abdominal obesity management
If you are overweight, you must lose weight, and if you are overweight and have abdominal obesity due to visceral fat, you must burn your visceral fat. The way to get rid of visceral fat is to avoid simple sugar (white rice and white flour, sugar, honey, sweet and sweet fruits), and to eat enough complex sugar (grain, brown rice, whole wheat, sweet potatoes, starch) and vegetables. It is recommended to eat a little bit of fruit, while protein foods are boiled or boiled and lightly cooked instead of fried or pungent seasoning. You should never binge-eat, late-night snacks, or drink too much.
2. regular exercise
It is based on aerobic exercise such as walking, biking, and swimming for more than 30 minutes every day, and adds strength training depending on your physical strength and physical condition. If you plan too hard from the beginning, you are more likely not to practice it every day and it is a burden on your body, so it is better to start with enough intensity to do it every day and gradually supplement the exercise and type.
High insulin resistance means that cells are unable to absorb glucose effectively and their sugar content in the blood is high. So, in order to correct insulin resistance, it's important to keep your blood sugar level from rising. That's the diet and exercise I've explained above.
Metabolic syndrome is a combination of many diseases, so you need to be prepared and well managed to prevent bigger diseases such as coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, and stroke. If you maintain the right eating habits and exercise habits, and manage them efficiently while consuming the mixed glucomics of ingredients that create synergy in blood sugar management, you will be able to regain your healthy body.
