Resumen
Actualmente el estilo de vida de la población adulta joven se encuentra constituido por dietas desequilibradas, ingesta de alimentos con alto contenido en grasas saturadas y carbohidratos. Dentro de la rutina diaria se manifiesta una carencia de actividades físicas y además el consumo excesivo de bebidas alcohólicas, al no ser controlados estos factores se origina un síndrome metabólico el cual desencadenará enfermedades crónicas, como la diabetes mellitus, hipertensión, patologías cerebrovasculares y del corazón. El objetivo del presente trabajo es evaluar la resistencia a la insulina como factor de riesgo en el síndrome metabólico en adultos jóvenes de la ciudad de Guayaquil, Ecuador. Para lo cual se determinó la concentración de la hormona insulina en las muestras de sangre obtenidas de los pacientes, de lo cual se evidencio un
50,5% de resistencia a la insulina, porcentaje del cual el 40,6% corresponde al sexo femenino y el 9,9% abarca el sexo masculino. Se sugiere controles médicos periódicos en forma de prevención, como también una dieta nutritiva, mantener la vida sedentaria fuera de la rutina diaria, logrando así incorporar actividades físicas y con más movimiento corporal. A las instituciones de salud hacer públicos este tipo de estudios para una concientización sobre cómo mejorar la calidad de vida.
