It is difficult, however, to be aware of the possible consequences. These include some conditions that, when present at the same time, take on a very specific name: <strong>metabolic syndrome<\/strong>. Few people know exactly what it is, which is curious as almost half of the Italian population aged 50 and over (one in 4 people overall, according to the Istituto Superiore di Sanit\u00e0), suffer from it. And its <strong>prevalence<\/strong> seems likely to increase.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>The 5 criteria for the diagnosis of metabolic syndrome<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Metabolic syndrome is a complex clinical picture given by the combination of multiple risk factors for the cardiovascular system. International scientific societies have identified 5 criteria for diagnosing metabolic syndrome, which we list below. It should be noted that there are slight differences between the values given by different societies, particularly between the US, European and World Health Organization.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>High abdominal circumference<\/strong>, obesity index: equal to or greater than 102 cm for men (94 cm if European) and 88 cm for women. The WHO, on the other hand, considers the waist-to-hip ratio (there is visceral obesity when it exceeds 0.9 in males and 0.85 in females) and\/or a body mass index (BMI) greater than 30.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hypertension<\/strong>: \u2265130\/85 mm Hg (or 140\/90 mm Hg according to the European Insulin Resistance Study Group; or \u2265160\/90 mm Hg or taking antihypertensive drugs, according to WHO).<\/li>\n<li><strong>HDL cholesterol<\/strong> (the so-called &#8220;good&#8221; cholesterol) less than 40 mg\/dl in men and 50 mg\/dl in women (or 39 mg\/dl according to European guidelines; or 35 mg\/dl in males and 39 mg\/dl in females according to the WHO).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Elevated triglycerides<\/strong>: \u2265 150 mg\/dl (also according to WHO, or \u2265 115 mg\/dl according to European guidelines).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Impaired fasting blood glucose<\/strong>: \u2265 110 mg\/dl (or between 110 and 126 mg\/dl according to European guidelines.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>In general, three of these altered parameters must coexist for the diagnosis of metabolic syndrome. According to the WHO, more specifically, there must be impaired blood sugar (insulin resistance and two other altered parameters, among which it adds the presence of trace amounts of albumin in the urine (microalbuminuria &gt;20\u03bcg\/min or albumin\/creatinine ratio &gt;20mg\/g).<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><em>In Italy, metabolic syndrome is estimated to affect nearly half of the population over the age of 50<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>But beyond the scientific <em>quarrel<\/em> over where to draw the line, the concept (simplifying) is clear: abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, and hypertension are not only individually risk factors for vascular health, but are interconnected and, together, amplify it.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_21846\" style=\"width: 2570px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21846\" class=\"wp-image-21846 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/solongevity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/shutterstock_1765589564-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1710\" srcset=\"https:\/\/solongevity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/shutterstock_1765589564-1.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/solongevity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/shutterstock_1765589564-1-1280x855.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/solongevity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/shutterstock_1765589564-1-980x655.jpg 980w, https:\/\/solongevity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/shutterstock_1765589564-1-480x321.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 2560px, 100vw\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-21846\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Metabolic syndrome identifies a set of conditions that predispose a person to the development of diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular events<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Excess <strong>visceral (or abdominal) <\/strong> <strong>body fat<\/strong> can result in <strong>altered<\/strong> <strong>fat<\/strong> and <strong>sugar<\/strong>(<strong>glucose<\/strong>) metabolism and activation of the process of <strong>chronic inflammation<\/strong>, which in turn can result in insulin resistance.

Therefore, if you are accustomed to a sedentary lifestyle, you need to change your habits. Try walking up stairs, getting around by foot or bicycle, parking your car a little far from your destination, and avoiding spending too long a time sitting. A person with high abdominal circumference, but who is physically active, has a high chance of not developing diabetes or metabolic syndrome.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><em>Regular physical activity and a balanced diet are the first guard against metabolic syndrome<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div id=\"attachment_21848\" style=\"width: 2570px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21848\" class=\"wp-image-21848 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/solongevity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/shutterstock_1539639230-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1708\" srcset=\"https:\/\/solongevity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/shutterstock_1539639230-1.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/solongevity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/shutterstock_1539639230-1-1280x854.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/solongevity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/shutterstock_1539639230-1-980x654.jpg 980w, https:\/\/solongevity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/shutterstock_1539639230-1-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 2560px, 100vw\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-21848\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Especially after the age of 50, it is essential to maintain an active lifestyle<\/p><\/div>\n<p>A balanced diet and a balanced distribution of meals throughout the day are particularly important, as they regulate the glycemic spikes caused by simple carbohydrate intake. Ideally, therefore, divide the &#8220;food day&#8221; into three meals and two snacks, one mid-morning and the other mid-afternoon. In those at risk for diabetes mellitus, a strategy based on more than 5 percent reduction in body weight, a fat percentage of no more than 30 percent of total daily calories, with saturated fat restriction, increased fiber consumption, and physical activity for at least at 4 hours per week has been shown to be effective in reducing the incidence of the disease.<\/p>\n<p>That is why it is important to periodically check one&#8217;s weight, waist circumference, blood pressure and perform targeted blood tests (blood glucose, total cholesterol, HDL, triglycerides). If your blood sugar, weight, or blood pressure rises, the first thing to do is to see your doctor. It should be mentioned that in addition to poor lifestyle habits, there is also a genetic predisposition to insulin resistance that needs to be carefully monitored.<\/p>\n<p>SoLongevity has put together a quick <strong>metabolic check up<\/strong> (available at participating pharmacies) that allows you to know, in just 15 minutes, your <strong>Metabolic Syndrome Coefficient<\/strong>: an easy-to-read value (on a scale of 0 to 5) that indicates the risk of metabolic syndrome which can be discussed with the physician.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One in 4 Italians &#8211; and one in 2 among those over 50 &#8211; suffers from metabolic syndrome.
