Did you know that one in four adults in Marrakech already suffers from metabolic syndrome?This silent epidemic doesn't make much noise, but it's shaking up our lives. Abdominal obesity, high blood pressure, excess sugar and fats in the blood: all of these signals combine to pave the way for diabetes, heart disease and stroke.In this book, Dr. Zineb Hannoun takes us to the heart of a fascinating investigation carried out in Marrakech, a city emblematic of a Morocco in the throes of dietary transition. Between traditional Friday couscous and modern fast food, between walking in the souk and long hours sitting in front of a screen, an entire society is changing... and paying a high price in terms of health.Accessible, lively and packed with practical advice, this book explains: - what metabolic syndrome really is, - why it is progressing so rapidly in Morocco and around the world, - and, above all, how everyone can take action with simple, effective gestures.It's a wake-up call, but also a message of hope: it's never too late to change your habits and get back on the road to health.
