Difference between Areca nut and Metabolic syndrome

Areca nut vs. Metabolic syndrome

The areca nut is the fruit of the areca palm (Areca catechu), which grows in much of the tropical Pacific (Melanesia and Micronesia), Southeast and South Asia, and parts of east Africa. Metabolic syndrome, sometimes known by other names, is a clustering of at least three of the five following medical conditions: abdominal obesity, high blood pressure, high blood sugar, high serum triglycerides and low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels.

Similarities between Areca nut and Metabolic syndrome

Areca nut and Metabolic syndrome have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cytokine, Diabetes mellitus, Diabetes mellitus type 2, Hyperlipidemia, Hypertension, Myocardial infarction.

Cytokine
