It is resistance to insulin (the hormone needed to convert food into energy) combined with high cholesterol or triglyceride levels, high blood pressure or excess body fat. Syndrome X causes premature ageing and increases the risk of developing cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, excess weight, eye disease, central nervous system disorders, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, cancer and other age-related diseases. Syndroom X is the first book to tell you how to fight this epidemic condition. The syndrome undermines the health of nearly a third of the population of the industrialised world. The book sets out a complete three-step programme, including easy-to-follow eating plans, gentle physical activity and readily available nutritional supplements that will protect you against developing syndrome X or reverse it if you already have it.
