About metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of risk factors: excess waist fat, raised blood pressure, raised blood sugar, raised triglycerides and low HDL (“good”) cholesterol. Having several together increases cardiovascular and diabetes risk more than any one alone.

Who this programme is for

  • Adults with three or more of the risk factors above
  • People with a family history of early heart disease or diabetes
  • People already on treatment for blood pressure or cholesterol who want a coordinated plan

What the programme includes

  • Endocrinologist consultations — a baseline assessment and scheduled reviews
  • Baseline and follow-up laboratory tests as advised by your doctor (charged separately)
  • A personalised nutrition plan that fits Indian food habits, including vegetarian options
  • An activity plan that includes strength (resistance) training
  • Dietitian and health-coach follow-up between doctor visits
  • Medication review by your endocrinologist at every stage
  • Coordinated review of blood-pressure, cholesterol and glucose medicines by your doctor
  • Cardiovascular risk assessment, with referral to a cardiologist where needed

How progress is measured

  • Waist circumference and weight
  • Blood pressure
  • Fasting glucose / HbA1c
  • Triglycerides, HDL and LDL cholesterol

What to expect

The aim is to bring waist size, blood pressure, blood sugar and lipids back towards healthier ranges and to lower your long-term risk. Some people will continue to need medicines to stay in a healthy range — that is a normal and safe part of care.

Your medicines

Safe adjustment of insulin and other diabetes or blood-pressure medicines is part of the programme and is done only by your doctor. Please do not stop or change any medicine on your own — sudden changes can cause dangerously high or low blood sugar.

Who this programme is not suitable for

  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding
  • Type 1 diabetes
  • Recent severe low blood sugars (hypoglycaemia) or very high blood sugars
  • Unstable heart disease
  • Advanced kidney or liver disease
  • An active eating disorder
  • Significant frailty

If any of these apply to you, you will still receive specialist care — through a different, individually planned pathway rather than this structured programme.
