How does InsuPur work?
InsuPur assists consumers with metabolic syndrome by providing the body with
nutrients from natural ingredients. Basically, the supplement will:
• Increase insulin sensitivity
• Help promote energy efficiency and aerobic metabolism
What Is Metabolic Syndrome?
Metabolic syndrome occurs when the body utilizes and stores energy incorrectly.
This disorder is defined by the following conditions: abdominal obesity, high serum
triglyceride levels, low high-density liprotein (HDL) levels, hypertension (elevated blood
pressure), and elevated levels of fasting plasma glucose.
Usually one is diagnosed with metabolic syndrome when three out of five conditions
coexist. Dr. Gerald M. Raevan, a professor emeritus of Stanford University School of
Medicine, theorized the condition was caused by a collection of insulin-resistance,
hyperlipidemia, and hypertension, which he coined as “Syndrome X.”
Later in 1989, Dr. Norman M. Kaplan added an additional component—abdominal obesity —and
referred to this as the “Deadly Quartet.”
Although there are still many varying opinions on the common factors, many
professionals soon recognized this combination as the “Metabolic Syndrome.”
Risks of the Metabolic Syndrome
This insulin-resistant condition has been a
major concern since the 1960s.
People develop the metabolic syndrome from an overstressed and abnormal
lifestyle that often involves an excess amount of calories from overeating and an
inadequate amount of physical activity that increases abdominal fat. Previous
research on the prevalence of hyperglycemia, avhyperlipidemia, and hypertension
together found that people with metabolic syndrome had a higher risk of
developing diseases such as diabetes, as well as heart attacks and strokes. The
likelihood of these illnesses occurring in
people with metabolic syndrome is much
more likely than those who are healthy. In addition, metabolic syndrome may
induce certain chronic illnesses such as fatty liver and renal disease.
In brief, metabolic syndrome is not a disease, but disorders may ensue if proper
treatment is not sought. Deregulation of the body’s metabolism results in a multitude of
wide-ranging health problems and thus should serve as a warning to take
preventative measures. Recently, there has been an increase of the metabolic syndrome
and other related diseases in the younger generation.
The Link Between Metabolic
Syndrome and Diabetes
As mentioned above, metabolic syndrome can often lead to diabetes, which is the inability to regulate blood glucose due to insulin insufficiency or resistance. It is not a nutritional deficiency, but results from the body relying on stored fat and tissue proteins as its main energy source instead, triggered by its inability to consume blood glucose, Hyperglycemia, high concentration of blood glucose, leads to excessive excretion of glucose and water from the body resulting in increased thirst (polydipsia), hunger (polyphagia), urination (polyuria), and weight loss since the blood glucose cannot be up-taken by the cells.
