Not all doctors agree on the cause of Metabolic Syndrome, but the following are commonly sited possibilities:

• Genetics. A family history of high cholesterol levels, diabetes, insulin resistance, obesity, and/or high blood pressure increases the risk of Metabolic Syndrome.
• Inadequate diet. The refined sugar, simple carbs, and trans fats found in the average American diet puts many people at risk for developing Metabolic Syndrome, which is a precursor to more serious disorders such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.
• Insulin resistance. Insulin is a hormone your body produces to help you turn sugar from food into energy for your body. If you are insulin resistant, too much sugar builds up in your blood, setting the stage for disease.
• Physical inactivity. A sedentary lifestyle, combined with a poor diet, can lead to obesity, a major risk factor for Metabolic Syndrome.
