Silas is suffering from a condition termed as metabolic syndrome. This condition is mainly due to increased body weight and no physical work. Insulin resistance is a strong reason. If the person doesn’t pay attention to his/her health, then it can lead to various heart-related diseases and diabetes. The most common sign of this condition is fat accumulation around the waist line.
