experts say, fat, protein, sugar metabolism and the “three high” disease closely related.

metabolic syndrome refers to the human metabolic disorders, and some high blood pressure blood sugar is not high, but an investigation with higher levels of insulin in the blood, and then measured insulin receptor activity will find that insulin receptor on insulin is not sensitive to insulin action is diminished. Insulin in the regulation of body protein, fat, sugar metabolism of the hormone. Protein, fat and sugar metabolism disorder occurs, the most common consequence is the possibility of high blood cholesterol, diabetes and hypertension.

work pressure of people is “metabolic syndrome” in patients at high risk or clinical. Pathogenesis of metabolic syndrome is not yet clear, the majority of the researchers that “insulin resistance” is the only moving factor in metabolic syndrome. Secondary to insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia can lead to a range of metabolic disorders and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, which have coronary heart disease, diabetes and hypertension “common soil.” For the metabolic syndrome in high-risk groups must be detected early and take a scientific medical intervention.

metabolic syndrome dangers

1, the body of carbohydrates, fats, proteins three major nutrients and metabolic disorders, resulting in nutrient absorption and synthesis of human barriers to seriously affect the cells and body metabolism.

2, on the human body produces large and medium blood vessels and small blood vessels for damages, due to vascular disease and the microcirculation, thus causing the body such as the heart and many other tissues, brain and kidney dysfunction, body dysfunction .

3, causing neurological and humoral regulation of human disorders, the human body environment, the normal chemical and physical conditions change, to accelerate cell damage and apoptosis. As the body's immune system damage, reduced ability to host defense, resulting in various diseases. Human metabolic disorders is the “three high” common soil

diagnostic criteria for metabolic syndrome

In summary, the “metabolic syndrome” reflects the “four high and one low”: that high blood pressure , hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, high triglycerides, low high-density protein.

1, overweight and obesity;

2, high blood glucose: fasting blood glucose greater than or equal to

6.1mmol / L, postprandial blood glucose greater than or equal to 7.8mmol / L, and has been diagnosed with diabetes;

3, high blood pressure: systolic / diastolic blood pressure greater than or equal to 140/90mmHg;

4, lipid disorders: fasting blood triglycerides greater than or equal to 1.7mmol / L and high-density lipoprotein exceeded.

focus on prevention and control four “best”

a “best”: the simplest prediction method – “belly thigh thin”

a 6,000 people in large-scale survey found that the Chinese characteristics of obesity: although the “block header” is not, but the belly flesh are particularly vulnerable to diabetes and metabolic syndrome in patients with intra-abdominal fat, increased thigh subcutaneous fat reduction (that is, “belly thigh thin” ) special disorders of body fat distribution, specifically the “belly thigh thin” in intra-abdominal obesity are more prone to diabetes and metabolic syndrome.

two “best”: The most fundamental reason – Obesity Obesity is a source of metabolic syndrome incidence. Studies have shown that: body mass index (BMI)> 24 kg / square meter of people suffering from diabetes and the risk of metabolic syndrome increased significantly.

If your weight normal, but abdominal fat, but also beware of whether there is visceral obesity, visceral fat content can help determine diagnosis.

three “most”: the most effective control methods – eating less hyperactivity

in the prevention and treatment of metabolic syndrome, weight loss is the first goal. To achieve the purpose of Dietary Fat Reduction, “eat less hyperactivity” is the safest, most economical and most effective method. Dietary adjustments, in addition to caloric restriction, but also eat more whole grains and fiber foods, eat high-sugar, high fat food. Although the “eating less hyperactivity,” the benefits are obvious, but really could do and stick to the “eat less hyperactivity,” is a very difficult task.

four “most”: most in need of attention for five categories of people

incidence of metabolic syndrome at high risk following a total of five categories: 1. is people over 50 years of age; 2. there is 1 or 2 components of metabolic syndrome, but not yet meet the diagnostic standards; 3. determined to disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, gout, polycystic ovarian syndrome, and various types of atrophy of fat persons; 4. there is obesity , diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, particularly in a number of combinations or metabolic syndrome, family history; 5. determined to family history of vascular disease.

against the “three high” start with lifestyle surgery

If you have metabolic syndrome are at high risk, then from now on, you should be vigilant all the unhealthy Gaidiao lifestyle, diet, increase physical activity, regular physical examination to detect abnormalities, timely treatment.

a balanced diet to prevent the “three high”

a morning of activities of human consumption of energy and nutrients provided by breakfast. Do not eat breakfast, 9 am to ten o'clock would be hypoglycemia, brain energy shortages. Do not eat breakfast, to feel particularly hungry at noon will be bound to eat, so that a result of heat caused by excessive intake of fat. Over time, blood lipids, glucose metabolic disorders will appear so serious that it led to the occurrence of diabetes. Do not eat breakfast while the risk of diabetes than those who eat breakfast on time four times higher.

long-term eating salty foods can cause cardiovascular, blood pressure higher than normal risk of disease, 4  5 times. After dinner, activity levels are generally lower than during the day, but the blood levels of insulin a day in the peak blood glucose into fat, insulin can be condensed in the vessel wall and abdominal wall, the dinner is too rich to eat the passage of time can lead to obesity. After obesity, fat reduction in the number of insulin receptor on the cell membrane, decreased affinity for insulin, insulin resistance occurs, resulting in elevated blood glucose levels and may trigger diabetes.
