Symptoms of Metabolic Syndrome

Metabolic syndrome is a group of risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Most of these don’t cause problems that you can see or feel. They may only be found during a visit to your doctor or with routine tests. This is one reason why you should see your doctor as advised.
