What are the Risk Factors for Metabolic Disorders?
Risk factors for metabolic disorders are multifaceted and can be broadly categorized into modifiable and non-modifiable factors:
Modifiable Factors: These include poor diet, physical inactivity, smoking, and excessive alcohol consumption. Addressing these can significantly reduce the risk of developing metabolic diseases. Non-modifiable Factors: These include age, gender, genetic predisposition, and family history. While these cannot be changed, understanding them can help in early detection and management.
