Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) is a multifactorial health condition characterized by a cluster of risk factors, including obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance. Its increasing prevalence poses significant challenges to public health, necessitating effective management strategies. This review article explores various lifestyle interventions—diet, physical activity, sleep, and stress management—that have been shown to mitigate the risks associated with MetS. By synthesizing current literature, we aim to provide a comprehensive overview of these interventions, their effectiveness, and recommendations for clinical practice. Metabolic syndrome affects an estimated 20-25% of the adult population globally, contributing to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and other comorbidities. The syndrome is defined by the presence of at least three of the following criteria: abdominal obesity, elevated blood pressure, high fasting glucose, and dyslipidemia. The interplay of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors plays a pivotal role in its pathogenesis, making lifestyle interventions a cornerstone of management. Lifestyle changes have been recognized as critical in both the prevention and management of MetS. These interventions can lead to significant improvements in metabolic parameters and overall health, often reducing the need for pharmacological treatments. This article will delve into various lifestyle interventions, analyzing their efficacy and providing insights into practical implementation [
