Metabolic syndrome, also known as syndrome X, is not a disease, but a group of risk factors that increase the likelihood of developing certain health problems. According to the Health Promotion Board, if you have three or more of the following criteria, you are considered to have metabolic syndrome:
- Larger waist: Men with a waist circumference of greater than 90cm and women with a waist circumference of greater than 80cm.
- High blood pressure: Blood pressure of 130/85 mmHg or higher.
- High blood sugar: Fasting blood sugar levels of 6.1mmol/l or higher.
- High triglycerides: Triglyceride levels of 1.7mmol/l or higher.
- Low HDL cholesterol: HDL cholesterol levels less than 1.0mmol/l in men and less than 1.3mmol/l in women.
Causes
The causes of metabolic syndrome are complex and include a combination of factors such as age, race, overweight/obesity, family history of diabetes, other medical conditions, and unhealthy lifestyle.
Symptoms
The most significant symptom is being overweight or obese, especially if you carry excess weight around your abdomen, giving you an apple-shaped body. Other symptoms of metabolic syndrome include increased thirst and urination, tiredness and blurred vision (symptoms of diabetes).
Consequences
Metabolic syndrome can lead to severe health problems such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and fatty liver disease.
Treatment
However, with early detection and lifestyle changes, you can prevent or delay the onset of these conditions. Treatment for metabolic syndrome involves controlling your diet, exercise, and losing weight if you are overweight.
The Use of Probiotics
In recent years, probiotics have gained popularity for their potential health benefits. Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that live in the gut and help maintain digestive health. They have been shown to improve gut health, boost the immune system, and even aid in weight loss.
