Do You have Syndrome X? Take this Survey.

Syndrome X or Metabolic Syndrome affects roughly 25% of all Americans or 77 million people living in the U.S.! Over 500,000 4 year olds are now considered obese. In the U.S. 6 out of 10 of us are obese and in 15 years if we keep on with our lifestyle it will be 8 out of 10. We are presently in the midst of the largest epidemic ever to face mankind.

Syndrome X is a name for a group of risk factors that occur

together and increase the risk for coronary artery disease, stroke,

and type 2 diabetes.

Please take our survey below and hand in to the front desk for more information.

Please circle below symptoms if they apply:

1. Are you fatigued after meals?

2. Do you feel like you have no energy? Are you generally fatigued?

3. Are you constantly hungry?

4. Do you crave sweets and is that craving not relieved by eating them?

5. Must you eat sweets right after your meal?

7. Do you suffer from frequent urination?

8. Do you have an increased appetite and thirst in general?

9. Do you have difficulty losing weight, no matter what?

10. Do you have migrating aches and pains?

If you circled 3 out of the 10 above you may have or be on your way to having Syndrome X.
