Metabolic Syndrome
Overview
Understanding Metabolic Syndrome
Metabolic syndrome is diagnosed when a person has a combination of risk factors including central obesity, raised blood pressure, elevated blood glucose, high triglycerides, and low HDL cholesterol. Together, these significantly increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, and Type 2 diabetes.
