#Metabolic syndrome (MS) prevalence increases in aging women, particularly after #menopause, due to hormonal changes like declining #estrogen and fat redistribution toward the abdomen. Aging also contributes to factors like insulin resistance, hypertension, and unfavorable lipid profiles, increasing MS risk. #Lifestyle factors such as inactivity, poor #diet, and environmental #pollutants can exacerbate these age-related and menopausal risks, increasing the likelihood of developing type 2 diabetes and #cardiovascular disease. Lifestyle modifications, such as dietary changes and increased #exercise, are crucial for prevention and management.
