Metabolic syndrome, metabolic disorder remains our gravest threat & challenge societally for both men & women! cluster of conditions that occur together, increasing your risk of heart disease, stroke
and type 2 diabetes; a quartet of increased blood pressure, high blood sugar, excess body fat around the waist, and abnormal cholesterol or triglyceride levels; if combined, you are at very high risk!
‘Having just one of these conditions doesn't mean you have metabolic syndrome. But it does mean you have a greater risk of serious disease. And if you develop more of these conditions, your risk of complications, such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease, rises even higher.
Metabolic syndrome is increasingly common, and up to one-third of U.S. adults have it. If you have metabolic syndrome or any of its components, aggressive lifestyle changes can delay or even prevent the development of serious health problems.’
Metabolic syndrome is closely linked to overweight or obesity and inactivity.
It's also linked to a condition called insulin resistance. Normally, your digestive system breaks down the foods you eat into sugar. Insulin is a hormone made by your pancreas that helps sugar enter your cells to be used as fuel.
In people with insulin resistance, cells don't respond normally to insulin and glucose can't enter the cells as easily. As a result, your blood sugar levels rise even as your body churns out more and more insulin to try to lower your blood sugar.’

Call the following Nutrition 101
This “syndrome” is nothing more than the inevitable mutually-reinforcing consequences of two things. Recognizing it, like so much lately, is something that is easily overlooked for a variety of reasons, none of them good or defendable, some of them because those overlooking them have too much at stake selling a product or an approach they claim will solve the problem, others because they would rather have something offering the illusion of an effortless way to a solution.
Here are the two fundamental conditions at the heart of this “syndrome”:
1. having available too much, too palatable, too inexpensive, too easily obtained, too highly nutritious food compared to previous generations around the world, and
2. having a lifestyle where the vast majority almost never, compared to previous generations, here and around the world, have to engage in much physical activity in order to secure the physical necessities of life such as food, clothing, and shelter.
Unless you are an alcoholic, have a small intestine absorption disease, have had a significant portion of the small intestine resected, or are forced to be on parenteral nutrition, it is ALWAYS easier to intake caloric content in the form of macronutrients than it is to expend the same quantity of energy in the only two ways open to you:
1. Basal metabolism, including the thermic effect of meals, this goes only whether you’re awake, asleep, or in a coma,
2. Resting metabolism, this is what is going on without any overt “exercise,” and
3. Physical activity, this is what’s going on when you actually choose to do anything to move your body, to move your body from here to there, or to use your body to move any other thing from here to there.
In normal people, almost 100% of the caloric content of the food going into your mouth is absorbed through your intestinal tract, unless you’re like a kid who doesn’t chew his corn.
There are only two ways the absorbed nutrients via dietary intake can be used.
1. You can use them to make things INSIDE your body (such as proteins, DNA, RNA, ATP, GTP, FADH, cholesterol, etc)
2. You can use them to do things with your body (all the energy needed to make what is in 1 above and all the energy needed to do everything else in life.
Here is what determines the relationship between 1 and 2 above:
1. If the nutrient intake is insufficient for 1 above, your body will either use stored energy (a very tiny amount of glucose stored as glycogen, or a relatively limitless storage capacity of fat) or it will start catabolizing skeletal muscle for the amino acids it needs for making new proteins as well as energy for physical movement.
2. If the nutrient intake exceeds the needs of 1 or 2 above, then the body has to store it. You can’t pee it away. Here’s where things get interesting. The storage and metabolism of macronutrients are based on different factors.
A. Storage
1. There is NO storage form of protein.
2. There is a very limited storage form of glucose called glycogen, just a few days worth,
3. There is relatively unlimited storage of fats.
B. Metabolism
1. All amino acids in excess of needs for protein synthesis are burned in either the glucose or fat oxidation cycles, depending on the type of the amino acids,
2. Glucose, needed principally by the nervous system, can also be used by skeletal muscle,
3. Fats, used by the heart, and other muscles can take up the slack.
Because of storage capacity, when you intake more nutrients (the energy equivalent of which is) greater than your energy needs, the excess has to be stored.
And because of the relative storage capacities and dangers of having excess amino acids and glucose in circulation, the body will shift substrate use away from fat and toward glucose and amino acid oxidation.
What does this mean? It helps to protect you by using as fuel the macronutrients that could cause you the most trouble in excess of storage capacity. Instead, the excess energy is stored as fat--not as newly created fat, because humans don’t do a lot of de novo lipogenesis, but as stored dietary fat.
How do we know?
Because when studies have been done to keep track of the relative quantities and chain lengths of dietary fats over the course of months on a hyper-caloric diet, and samples of stored fats in adipose tissue are analyzed, they match almost exactly by relative quantities and chain lengths the fats absorbed from the diet.
So, the ONLY reason that people gain body fat is because their energy intake exceeds their energy expenditure.
The ONLY reason that people lose body fat (without liposuction) is because their energy intake is less than their energy expenditure.
So, the greater your fat mass as a percentage of your total body weight, the greater will be the level of circulating lipids in your blood stream. Why? Because the fats stored in adipose tissue doesn’t just sit there, it is constantly being released from and absorbed by other adipose cells.
If your existing adipose cells begin to reach capacity, fat stem cells are triggered to make new adipose tissue.
BUT when they are depleted, you DON’T lose them.
A moment on the lips, forever on the hips.
And when you increase physical activity to use more energy or you restrict your energy intake to deplete fat stores, then those fat cells will signal they’re getting low. That signal will stimulate appetite to move you to replace that stored fat.
High circulating levels of serum lipids (especially in the relative absence of physical activity) can interfere with the proper functioning of insulin receptors, leading to what’s known as non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM, aka adult onset diabetes).
But do you know what will almost completely reverse that, even if you remain “fat”? Sufficient physical activity.
Now, combine all the above. If you engage in a lot of recreational eating while engaging in very little physical activity and your energy intake exceeds your energy expenditure, then you will gain body fat mass.
The knee-jerk assumption among too many has been that the problems associated with obesity are caused by obesity, rather than both obesity and negative health outcomes are both the consequence of a relative lack of sufficient physical activity for optimum health.
This is demonstrated by looking at non-obese sedentary individuals. They may believe that their relative lack of body fat is protective. But if they are as deficient in physical activity as someone who is grossly obese, they both are at high risk for developing comorbid conditions.
But, see, behavior follows intention to the degree that will is exercised. And behavior that is perceived as unpleasant will be dumped in favor of behavior perceived as pleasant. And because of the body’s need to survive, the intake of what many people foolishly and stupidly call “empty calories,” ingesting those calories is highly pleasurable. And when folks do not have to engage in any physical activity more strenuous to secure that food than to call Uber Eats or Door Dash, then it’s almost a foregone conclusion that “obesity” as well as other consequences of physical inactivity will follow REGARDLESS of your “genetics.”
This was long ago noted by the study of genetically identical populations: the Pima Indians living their traditional life and eating their traditional diet in Mexico and their counterparts living in Arizona, driving their F350s everywhere, spending huge amounts of time indoors watching TV, playing video games, and eating, eating, eating.
The error of those studying the Pima was to assume they got that way by not eating their traditional diet. But it was basically a combination of almost no need to engage in physical activity and an unbelievable quantity of relatively inexpensive, easily obtained, highly palatable, and highly nutritious foods.
And for those who claim that fast foods are “nutritionally lacking,” the “empty calorie” people, they are completely out of their minds. Your bodies number one nutritional need is for those empty calories just to stay alive.
You can go from between many months to even years without vitamins and minerals as such, but a few days without empty calories, you’ll feel weak and very soon will be knocking on death’s door.
So the answer is NOT to make food more unpalatable to make people eat less or to make it way more expensive so people will eat less or to force people to exercise to reduce the risk, not from obesity, but from the lack of physical activity that reinforces obesity. It’s NOT to give them drugs that will try to alter their metabolism or their behavior.
Why?
Because those are all the activities of socialist control freaks trying to coerce people into adopting their notion of the perfect society that ALWAYS ends up as a horrific society.
Better to have an obese society and the physical consequences of physical inactivity than to have a society always living on the edge of starvation and all the health consequences of THAT, because we have centuries of evidence of the outcome of that.
Want to be healthier regardless of your fat mass? Get more physical activity and weight bearing exercise. Even if you don’t lose fat you’ll be better off.
Want to lose fat mass? Intake less energy than you expend or expend more energy than you intake.
Oh, but that requires effort and certain degrees of depriving yourself of pleasure.
Well, that’s the only way. If you rely on panaceas you’re only going to bring harm to yourself.
But we all know people who’d rather have the illusion they’re doing themselves good in order to counteract the effects of what they’re actually doing.
There’s no drug that’s going to change that that’s not also going to screw things up much, much more.
