New Advances in Treating Metabolic Syndrome

Metabolic syndrome is a series of conditions that, when added together, basically amount to someone not taking care of themselves. 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
Metabolic syndrome has different elements, so having just one element doesn’t necessarily mean you have it. But if you have any 3 of the above conditions, you may be at risk.
Here’s the bad news:
Your risk factor for a heart attack or stroke is much greater.
You’re at risk for getting diabetes.
You’re among 25% of Americans with this condition.
There Is Good News
YOU can fix it.
Easy? Not likely. It requires a major lifestyle change. Diet and exercise should be first on your list of lifestyle changes.
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.
For exercise, start with at least 30 minutes of moderate activity, such as brisk walking, at least 5 days a week. Gradually work up to 60 minutes of moderate activity at least 5 to 7 days a week.
More Good News:
An anti aging supplement has proven to also be helpful with your 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! After some clinical trials, it was discovered that people that took the new supplement along with exercising, lost visceral fat twice as fast and those people that exercised without the supplement.
So here’s the bad news: you still have to diet and exercise.
However, it’s great to know that there’s something out there to help you get results twice as fast - and it’s perfectly safe. It’s made from Lychee Fruit Extract and Green Tea Extract. And it has other great anti aging benefits, too.
