What Is Cardiometabolic Health?



Cardiometabolic Health ❤️🏃🏻‍♀️📚👉 is a term that links disorders of the metabolic syndrome that are predictive of cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

e.g. high total and LDL cholesterol,

low HDL cholesterol,

high triglycerides,

high blood sugars,

glucose intolerance,

high insulin or insulin resistance,

high blood pressure,

abdominal adiposity


I have seen over the years in practice and my PhD research that these conditions often present together and impact on individuals' day-to-day lives.

The bright side is they can be prevented and/or managed through diet and lifestyle.


Stay tuned👂to find out more on how diet and lifestyle can help improve your cardiometabolic health!
