Primary and Secondary Prevention
Various strategies have been proposed to prevent the development of metabolic syndrome. These include increased physical activity (such as walking 30 minutes every day),[1] and a healthy, reduced calorie diet.[2] There are many studies that support the value of a healthy lifestyle as above. However, one study stated that these measures are effective in only a minority of people.[3] The International Obesity Taskforce states that interventions on a sociopolitical level are required to reduce development of the metabolic syndrome in populations.[4]
A 2007 study of 2,375 male subjects over 20 years suggested that daily intake of a pint of milk or equivalent dairy products more than halved the risk of metabolic syndrome.[5] Other studies both support and dispute the authors' findings.[6]
