Sep 13, 2019
“Middle Age Metabolic Syndrome” is the presentation given by Sherry Fong, D.C. at the August 15, 2019 meeting of the Silicon Valley Health Institute in Palo Alto, CA.

What happens as we age that we accumulate belly fat, and have increased high blood pressure, high LDL, high A1c and high cholesterol and chronic fatigue, restless sleep and painful joints? These typically are called metabolic syndrome and result from increasing insulin resistance. Increasing insulin resistance results in inflammation, oxidative stress and is implicated in many chronic diseases including obesity and Alzheimer’s Disease. Insulin resistance can have many contributing causes including diet, stress, poor sleep, EMF and toxins.
