Metabolic Syndrome is a group of factors, manifested simultaneously, that increase the risk of adolescent Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, stroke or heart disease. Risk factors include high blood pressure, dyslipidemia, abdominal obesity, and abnormal fasting glucose. The main objective was to characterize the lifestyle and risk factors associated with Metabolic Syndrome in the Administrative Personnel of the National University of Trujillo. 168 administrative workers from the main headquarters of the National University of Trujillo were selected, according to the stratified random method. In the Lifestyle Profile, a low level of exercise was presented and the predominant Physical Activity Level was sedentary lifestyle. Regarding the factors associated with Metabolic Syndrome in the administrative staff of the National University of Trujillo, both men and women presented abdominal obesity, and altered blood pressure, fasting glucose and triglycerides values. Furthermore, women had HDL values below what was desirable. Regarding the risk of getting sick, it is very high in syndromic workers, those who are overweight are high and those who are obese have a very high risk. Regarding coronary risk, it is twice the average for those who manifest Metabolic Syndrome. Even obese workers are mostly at double risk.
