New Discovery in Metabolic Syndrome Treatment
There’s a new word for not taking care of yourself – Metabolic Syndrome. If you are over 40, have an expanding waistline, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, poor diet, not enough exercise, high blood sugar (pre-diabetic), then you have this condition!
However, there is also a recent anti aging supplement that has proven helpful with metabolic syndrome.
Here are the symptoms:
- An expanding waistline (35 inches for women, 40 inches for men)
- A BMI (Base Metabolic Rate) of over 25
- Triglyceride level over 150
- A low HDL (good cholesterol) level
- Blood pressure over 130/85
- Higher than normal blood glucose level
There is a collection of several factors in metabolic syndrome, so you may not have it if you only have one symptom. But if you have any 3 of the above conditions, you may be at risk.
Here’s the bad news:
You’re at risk for getting a heart attack or stroke – sooner than later.
You’re at risk for getting diabetes.
At least 25% of Americans are in this dilemma.
Now for some good news
YOU can fix it.
Easy? Not likely. It requires a major lifestyle change. If a healthy diet and exercise isn’t a part of your life, then you’ll need to incorporate it now.
For diet this means eating fewer calories and less saturated fat, and emphasizing whole grains, fish, and fruits and vegetables. Olive, safflower oil and nuts are good choices for unsaturated fats.
If you haven’t exercised in a while, you should start with about 30 minutes of brisk walking, 5 days per week. Gradually work up to 60 minutes of moderate activity at least 5 to 7 days a week.
More Good News:
There is something new to help reduce that expanding waistline (visceral fat). It actually has been approved by the FDA as a new “dietary supplement”.What is unusual about this supplement is that its first use was primarily cosmetics, as it has both anti aging and antioxidant benefits! It was discovered in clinical trials that subjects taking the new supplement along with exercising had shed visceral fat twice as fast and the subjects that exercised without the supplement.
So here’s the bad news: you still have to diet and exercise.
Still, it’s nice to know that a safe supplement can help you get results twice as fast. It’s made from Lychee Fruit Extract and Green Tea Extract. And it has other great anti aging benefits, too.
