Metabolic syndrome

The metabolic syndrome , that by neutral fat is too build up around internal organs , mainly the stomach and intestine , and liver , increase in blood pressure values, and blood sugar levels , there is an abnormality of the blood lipid values ??overlap , and living full-fledged it is that and related diseases of the condition ( atherosclerotic disease ) is and is more prone to diseases caused by hardening of the arteries , such as myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction in turn .

Normally , there is no subjective symptoms . Sometimes it is referred to as visceral fat that fat accumulates around the internal organs , is referred to as the visceral fat syndrome , metabolic syndrome .

In the sense of " metabolic " and metabolic , and metabolism , and is a function of or creating ( metabolism ) , the energy is decomposed in the body the nutrients it was adopted by meal, or synthetic materials to make the cells of the body . And the syndrome refers to the variety of symptoms that occur at the same time .

And lifestyle-related diseases , illness and diabetes and high blood pressure , lipid disorders (such as hyperlipidemia ) is a general term for atherosclerotic diseases caused by them . Lifestyle everyday , so develop obesity due to lack of exercise and eating too much is a major factor in particular , it is called a lifestyle-related diseases .

In recent years , atherosclerotic diseases such as myocardial infarction , has become a cause of death and at the same time is a major disease of industrialized civilization countries a lot of obesity , research to explore the factors that aggravate or cause that has been promoted . As a result , we have found that visceral fat was emerging , obesity due to excessive accumulation of visceral fat , increases the risk of developing lifestyle-related diseases .

Therefore, based on a visceral fat type obesity , that the blood pressure is high, the blood glucose level is high, not as high as in need of treatment now is to a number of test values ??also , abnormal blood lipid levels We were the metabolic syndrome a condition that can be seen are overlapped multiple .
