Metabolic syndrome -" metabolic syndrome" early is also known as the insulin resistance syndrome ( Insulin resistance syndrome ), or X syndrome, also known as adverse metabolic syndrome ( Dysmetabolic syndrome ) or multiple metabolic syndrome ( Multiple metabolic syndrome ).It is not a new syndrome, about ten years ago, the United States of America Stanford University Gerald M. Ra color Eve Department of internal medicine Professor color n is presented this syndrome. The metabolic syndrome is not a specific "illness", but a disease state, can alert health condition, from a medical point of view, the concept of the metabolic syndrome have been proposed, but warn patients, early prevention of diseases.According to the research shows, metabolic syndrome without correction, from long-term metabolic syndrome status may increase cardiovascular and cerebral vascular disease ( incidence rate increased to 3 times ), diabetes ( incidence rate increased to 5 times ) and mortality ( is not this syndrome2.5 times).Metabolic syndrome criteriaThe zixiutang bee pollen Department of Health Bureau of health in 96 years in January 18th amended notice our metabolic syndrome criteria for the following 5risk factors, if it contains 3or more can determine the.(1): abdominal obesity ( waist: male, female�� 90cm�� 80cm ).(2): hypertension, systolic blood pressure ( SBP )�� 130mmHg/ diastolic blood pressure ( DBP )�� 85mmHg.(3): high blood glucose fasting blood glucose ( FG )�� 100mg/dl.(4) and high density lipoprotein cholesterol ( HDL-C ): male, female <50mg/dl <40mg/dl.(5) high triglycerides ( TG )�� 150mg/dl.Welfare state was now the most dangerous blessing waist thickThe past always think looks welfare state is rich, in fact, obesity is a health killer. Research points out, the metabolic syndrome increases quickly with obesity and excess fat accumulation, modern people calorie intake too much, and not enough exercise to consumption, plus the aging factors, will cause the body to gradually accumulate fat, especially mostly accumulates in the abdominal organs, the main accumulation in the abdominal fat known as the" visceral fat". These visceral fat can use the simple way to measure out, also known as the " waist " to determine, waist is too big, show visceral fat accumulation is overmuch, the main characterization of metabolic syndrome.The waist is thick: lipids, blood sugar crisis!Abdominal obesity human adipose tissue metabolic activity is high, will the excessive secretion of free fatty acids into hepatic and systemic blood circulation, increase the liver production of very low density lipoprotein particles and release into the blood, these particles are the major component is a triglyceride, when the blood of three acid triglyceride increase, high density lipoprotein cholesterol ( the good cholesterol ) can drop accordingly, also formed lipid abnormalities in two characteristics --" triglyceride high"," high density cholesterol low"; on the other hand, abdominal fat increased, will lead to increased cardiovascular burden, resulting in chronic inflammation, and prone to high blood pressure, and reduce the role of insulin and function, produce" insulin resistance", causing high blood sugar effect phenomenon, buttocks, thigh fat than the pear shape more harmful
