Metabolic syndrome occurs when being overweight or obese -- combined with other risk factors -- increase a person's chances of developing heart disease and diabetes.
These risk factors include abdominal obesity, elevated triglycerides, high blood pressure, elevated blood sugar and a poor ratio of good-to-bad cholesterol.
The U.S. National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute suggests how you can help prevent metabolic syndrome:
· Maintain a healthy body-mass index £¨BMI£© of less than 25.
· Keep your waistline at a healthy size. Less than 35 inches for women and 40 inches for men is ideal.
· Maintain a healthy body weight. Talk to your doctor about the best weight for you.
· Stick to a low-calorie, low-cholesterol and low-fat eating plan.
· Get regular exercise. In general, 60 minutes worth, five-to-seven days per week, is recommended for most people.
· Visit your doctor regularly, and frequently test your blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar.
