For Healthy Blood Sugar and Blood Pressure Grifron®, SX-Fraction®, the only standardized extract to contain the active SX-fraction®, is launched as the first dietary supplement of its class that specifically addresses its beneficial role in Syndrome X as a part of a diet to help maintain healthy blood sugar and blood pressure levels.( This sinister-sounding syndrome; also known as Insulin Resistance Syndrome, Metabolic Syndrome, Fat Gut Syndrome or Deadly Quartet; is a cluster of symptoms that may include the following: * obesity (excessive fat tissue in the abdominal region) * hyperlipidemia (high triglycerides and low HDL cholesterol) * high blood pressure * glucose intolerance (higher blood glucose level than normal) Syndrome X can lead to life-threatening diseases including type II diabetes, hypertension and heart disease. More importantly, people with Syndrome X are also more likely than others to die from cardiovascular disease. It is said that 50~70 million Americans are supposed to have Syndrome X, and most of whom are unaware of this serious problem.
