Answer to Question 1

Walk rather than drive for short trips. Take the stairs instead of the elevator. Ride a bike. Go for a walk with your child or your dog. Mow the lawn or rake leaves. Park farther from your destination and walk the rest of the way.

Answer to Question 2

Syndrome X is a group of risk factors that collectively increase the risk for heart disease. The risk factors include abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, high blood pressure, elevated blood levels of triglycerides, a low level of HDL cholesterol, too much insulin in the blood, and smaller and denser LDL cholesterol particles.
