Metabolic Syndrome Combatant

Meaning

Any therapeutic strategy, lifestyle intervention, or pharmacological agent specifically designed to counteract and mitigate the constellation of interconnected risk factors that define Metabolic Syndrome, including central obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance. In the context of hormonal health, this term often refers to hormones or their precursors, such as DHEA or testosterone, which demonstrate a beneficial impact on glucose metabolism and body composition. The goal of a combatant is to reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
