Metabolic Syndrome is a combination of medical disorders that affect a large number of people in a cluster fashion. It consists of multiple, interrelated risk factors of metabolic origin that appear to directly promote the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). This constellation of metabolic risk factors is ... strongly associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus or the risk for this condition. Metabolic risk factors include elevated waist circumference, elevated triglycerides, reduced HDL-C, elevated blood pressure, elevated fasting glucose.

Metabolic Syndrome is a cluster of metabolic disorders including abnormal lipid levels, diabetes/insulin resistance and obesity. Each of these metabolic features are major risk factors for the development of cardiovascular disease. In North America it is estimated that up to 40% of adults over 65 years have this syndrome. There are currently no effective therapies on the market that address this common metabolic disorder in a comprehensive manner. Furthermore, any drug developed for Metabolic Syndrome could have significant impact on the individual diseases that constitute this syndrome.

To reverse Metabolic Syndrome and its increased risk of a heart disease, you must first address the disorder's symptoms like hypertension (high blood pressure). A root cause is Insulin Resistance. If left unchecked, both conditions can lead to damage being inflicted on your cardiovascular system, leading to heart disease.
As mentioned above, Metabolic Syndrome is closely linked to insulin resistance. According to the American Heart Association, one group of such people are those with diabetes who have a defect in insulin action and can’t maintain a proper level of glucose in their blood. Another is people, mainly those with high blood pressure, who are nondiabetic and insulin-resistant, but who compensate by secreting large amounts of insulin. This condition is known as hyperinsulinemia. A third group is heart attack survivors who, unlike hypertensives, have hyperinsulinemia without having abnormal glucose levels.

Syndrome X or Metabolic Syndrome is ... known as Insulin Resistance Syndrome. People with Syndrome X have high levels of glucose in their blood due to the cells resistance of the action of insulin. In other words, the insulin is not able to transport glucose into the cells where it is used to produce energy, leaving the high levels of glucose in the blood.
