NEW Deadly Threat Emerges [What to Look For]
When you hear about conditions like high blood pressure, elevated blood sugar, and excess abdominal fat, you likely think they’re linked to an increased risk for heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and stroke.
And you’re absolutely right.
Together, they’re referred to as metabolic syndrome.
But researchers just identified another DEADLY risk you could be faced with if you’re battling this collection of health issues…
Researchers evaluated over 44,000 people, averaging 49 years old, who were divided into four groups based on metabolic syndrome scores AND the course of their condition.
As I mentioned earlier, metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions traditionally associated with an increased risk of heart disease, diabetes, and stroke.
Those conditions include high blood pressure, elevated blood sugar, abnormal lipids, and abdominal fat.
However, the new study showed that these conditions ALSO increase the risk of various types of cancer.
Those who had the highest metabolic syndrome scores coupled with chronic inflammation also had the greatest risk of breast, endometrial, colon, and liver cancers.
When compared to those with a consistently low risk for metabolic syndrome, the folks who showed a pattern of increasing risk for the syndrome over time ALSO had a…
- 3 times higher risk of ANY cancer
- 1 times higher risk of breast cancer
- 3 times higher risk of endometrial cancer
- 5 times higher risk of kidney cancer
- 5 times higher risk of colorectal cancer
- 6 times higher risk of liver cancer
The good thing about metabolic syndrome is that it’s reversible.
When you take steps to control your blood pressure, blood sugar, and waistline… you’ll also be taking control of your cancer risk.
