City, State/Country: Unknown

Omo, abeg make we gist about dis matter wey don scatter ground! New research don show say if you get metabolic syndrome, you fit increase your chances to develop Parkinson’s disease by 40%. E no be small thing o!

So wetin be metabolic syndrome? Na when person get at least three of dis wahala: excess belly fat, high blood pressure, high blood sugar, low good cholesterol, and high triglycerides. Na serious matter wey fit lead to other big health wahalas.

For dis research, dem gather data from 467,200 people wey dey average age of 57. Dem follow dem for 15 years, and at the end, 3,222 of dem come catch Parkinson’s disease. That’s over 3,000 people wey no go fit dance macarena like dem dey suppose!

Weili Xu, PhD, wey be the head of the research from Karolinska Institutet, don talk say “Our findings suggest that metabolic syndrome may be a modifiable risk factor for Parkinson’s disease.” Wetin dat mean be say if we sabi control metabolic syndrome, e fit help us avoid Parkinson’s. Now, no be sey we no dey chop well or exercise, o! Organisation encourage preventive measures so we fit maintain better health.

Dem also observe sey people wey get both genetic risk factors and metabolic syndrome dey at risk plus because e dey heavy like wetin dem dey carry from market. The research show sey the more the components of metabolic syndrome wey person get, na im the higher the risk for development of Parkinson’s. E no sweet for mouth at all.

But hold on before you dey panic too much! E get as the study dey show correlation, but no be causal relationship; no body don completely figure out if metabolic syndrome dey cause Parkinson’s, or na na dem two dey come together because of some other issues.

And make you no forget, most of the people wey dem study na white folks, so we still need more studies for other ethnic groups to see if the same wahala dey follow dem.

In summary, if you dey see signs of metabolic syndrome, it fit time for you to start balance your diet, exercise more, and live life like you mean am because the health benefits far outweigh the wahala. No one wan carry Parkinson’s gree, right?

So, if you get sense together with your metabolic health, you fit turn the table on this wahala wey dey come for Parkinson’s. Omo, make everybody dey manage their health, abeg!
