--- Objective: To determine the presence of Insuline Resistance (IR) and Metabollic Syndrome (MS) in adult female with overweight and obesity. Material and Methods: 60 adults female aged 20 to 40 years were studied. All were weighed and heighted to calculate their Body Mass Index (BMI) in order to include them to the group with overweight (between 25.1 to 29.9 kg/m2) and obesity (30 and over kg/m2). Likewise their waist circumference (WC) was taken midway between the tenth rib and the iliac crest. The biochemical ratios dosed were: basal glycemia, basal insuline, total cholesterol, trigliceridos, cholesterol HDL, LDL and VLDL. The IR determination was made through HOMA index, considering as diagnosis value equal or higher than 2.7. For the MS it was used the ATPIII recommendation.Results: The presence of IR reaches to 4 and 31.4% in females with overweight and obesity respectively. The MS is present in 28% of females with overweight and in 30% of obese. As to WC, females who have WC over 50 percentile, 33.3% report IR and 37% MS. On the contrary, those who have WC under 50 percentile, 3.7% record IR and 27% MS. Those with a WC over 50 percentile have an insulinemia average of 10.28 uUI/ml, while the ones which are under the 50 percentile have 6.32 uUI/ml. The value of 50 percentile for the population studied is 110 cm. The risk factors within group of ages, the adult ones (30 to 40 years) appear which higher risk due to the presence of MS and WC, than the younger (20 to 30 years). The BMI and WC show a correlation significantly statistic with insulin and HOMA. Conclusions: The risk that itself represents to have a BMI and WC over normal values is increased by the presence of metabolic alterations, which in some way will condition cardiovascular problems. The epidemiologic tendency of these diseases previews a sustained increase along time, if no measures are taken to confront this situation. Recommendations These measures are widely known and are around changes in lifestyles, sustained in an adequate feeding and a sustained promotion of physical activity.
