Could you have syndrome x
Syndrome X is the most common cause of inability to lose weight. It mostly occurs in people with excess abdominal fat. Syndrome X also goes by the names metabolic syndrome, pre-diabetes and insulin resistance. Insulin resistance basically means that the hormone insulin, which is made by your pancreas has become less effective at controlling your blood sugar. This makes you prone to symptoms of unstable blood sugar, such as fatigue, sugar cravings, anxiety, insomnia and feeling unwell if you haven’t eaten for several hours. Syndrome X also places you at much greater risk of developing type 2 diabetes and fatty liver. People with syndrome X also have a three-fold higher risk of having a heart attack. Clearly it’s important to avoid developing Syndrome X. There are certain diagnostic criteria used to determine if a person has syndrome X.
