Progress in Metabolic Syndrome Research

Since cardiovascular (heart and blood vessel) disease is the leading cause of death for adults in developed countries, many medical studies focus on treating or preventing heart disease and stroke. The metabolic syndrome, a collection of unhealthy body measurements and abnormal laboratory test results, may identify persons at high risk for developing cardiovascular disease. Aggressive lifestyle modification and possible use of medications to treat the conditions that make up the metabolic syndrome may reduce a person's chances of developing heart disease or stroke. The metabolic syndrome has also been called syndrome X or insulin resistance syndrome.

Dietary and Supplement Strategies for the Prevention and Treatment of Metabolic Syndrome

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) afflicts about 20-30 % of the global population, and is increasing in prevalence and incidence. MetS is linked to an unhealthy lifestyle (e.g. low physical activity and unbalanced and western-style diets), which leads to a low-grade inflammatory state and an increase in oxidative stress, due to an unbalanced ratio of pro-oxidants and antioxidant species in the human body. This low-grade inflammatory state triggers cytokine hypersecretion and eventually leads to insulin resistance which aggravates the major components of this syndrome such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, and abdominal obesity in a vicious cycle. This is a critical clinical problem because it leads the patient to have a greater risk of developing type 2 diabetes with progression to cerebrovascular and endothelial pathologies.
