Metabolic disease refers to a broad category of conditions that arise when the body's metabolism, the complex set of chemical reactions that convert food into energy, is disrupted. These disorders occur when abnormal chemical reactions interfere with the body's ability to process carbohydrates, fats, or proteins, leading to either an excess or deficiency of certain substances needed for health. Common examples include diabetes mellitus (Type 1 and Type 2), where the body cannot properly regulate blood sugar due to insulin issues; metabolic syndrome, a cluster of conditions like high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and excess abdominal fat that increase the risk of heart disease and stroke; and thyroid disorders (hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism), which involve imbalances in metabolism-regulating hormones. Many metabolic diseases are genetic, while others are influenced by lifestyle factors like diet and physical activity. Symptoms can vary widely but may include fatigue, weight changes, gastrointestinal issues, or more severe complications affecting organs if left unmanaged.For expert care and effective metabolic disease treatment in Jhandewalan, trust Dr. Shipra Gulati to provide personalized solutions that improve your health and quality of life.
