Description

Metabolic syndrome is a pathological condition with hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, or hypertension resulting in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease. Factors that affect visceral fat accumulation and weight gain include not only physiological factors such as heredity, constitution, and age, but also behavioral factors and environmental factors. Eating behavior and eating environment are critical for the prevention and treatment of metabolic syndrome. In this report, we will discuss about recent topics of nutrition in metabolic syndrome, especially association with macronutrients such as carbohydrate, fatty acids and protein. In recent years, several publications have determined the benefit of low carbohydrate diet on obesity and diabetes, and the American Diabetes Association has also recommended low carbohydrate diet, Mediterranean diet, and a diet mainly consistent with vegetables and plants. There have been many reports that the effect of carbohydrate restriction has not only the weight loss effect but also reduces risk factors such as cardiovascular disease and cerebrovascular disease. Fanelli et al . recently have shown that half of US adults with diabetes have less than the recommended daily intake of protein, which may lead to poor dietary quality. Diabetic patients with low protein intake had significantly lower dietary nutrient density and 12.5% higher carbohydrate intake, whereas diabetic patients with daily protein intake meeting the recommended amount have shown that the overall quality of the diet was high and almost met the recommended daily amount of vegetables, whole grains, dairy products and added sugars. Therefore, in addition to the prevention of metabolic syndrome, protein is important for treatment of metabolic syndrome and higher QOL. Nutritional research needs further development to deal with metabolic syndrome.
