Abstract

Up to now after many definition what is called metabolic syndrome includes this kind of dismetabolism: abnormal body fat distribution atherogenic dyslipidemia (including elevated trygliceride and small LDL particles) dysglycemia, insuline resistant, vascular dysregulation (beyond elevated blood pressure) prothrombotic state and hormonal factors which still are under study. Metabolic syndrome is not a disease per se, but is an "ensemble" of risk factors for cardiovascular disease and diabetes. In the present paper data will be presented on: a) a tentative to unify the diagnostic criteria after a deep loup in MS; b) effective interventions to reduce the incidence of MS; c) a comparison with the practical advices for life style intervention with the guide line prescribed by Enerzone; d) the rational for use at least twice a week of fatty fish from deep and cold water and the supplementation with LC PUFA Omega-3 fatty acids; e) the suggestion to study the relationship of simple and complex measures of the components of the MS to clinical events.
