SUMMARY:Metabolic Syndrome and Insulin Resistance - The Key to Feeling Great
DESCRIPTION:Approximately 42%–43% of American adults are obese\, with a BMI of 30 or higher\, based on CDC data. When including those who are overweight\, nearly 3 in 4 adults are affected. Emerging research suggests that if considering broader definitions of obesity\, this rate could be as high as 68%–70% \n93% of the population suffers from Metabolic Syndrome and Insulin Resistance. Learn what this looks like and what you can do about it. \nDefining the Syndrome through Five Markers: Participants will learn how to identify the five clinical markers of metabolic health: abdominal obesity (waist circumference)\, high blood pressure\, elevated fasting blood glucose\, high triglycerides\, and low HDL cholesterol. \nInsulin Resistance as the Underlying Driver: The lecture will explain how insulin resistance—where cells stop responding effectively to insulin—acts as the core mechanism that leads to the cluster of symptoms seen in metabolic syndrome. \nLong-term Health Risks and Complications: Attendees will understand how these conditions significantly increase the risk of developing life-altering diseases\, including Type 2 diabetes\, heart disease\, stroke\, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. \nThe “Metabolically Unhealthy” Spectrum: Participants will explore why someone with a “normal” BMI can still be metabolically unhealthy (often called “skinny fat”)\, emphasizing that weight alone is not a complete indicator of metabolic function. \nThe Power of Lifestyle Intervention: A critical takeaway will be the reversibility of these conditions through targeted changes\, such as adopting a low-refined-carbohydrate diet\, increasing physical activity\, and improving sleep quality. \nMary is a SCIENCE GEEK. She teaches about Metabolic Health and Insulin Resistance the KEY to health in SIMPLE terms that even kids can understand. She has 50 years of experience in Health & Lifestyle practices. \nThis class is hosted by Hurricane Valley Chamber Member \nSharon Shores\, Certified Emotion/Body Code Practitione
