    High Waist Circumference Obesity is one of the major determinants for developing metabolic syndorme. Research has shown that obese adults are much more likely to have metabolic syndrome compared to adults of normal weight (Palaniappan et al., 2004; Wilson, Kannel, Silbershatz, & D'Agostino, 1999). Central obesity contributes to chronic diseases such as: insulin resistance, hypertension, dyslipidemia and hyperglycemia and has been associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus (isomaa 2001, kannel 1992, lee s 2006, hanson 2002) (58-62).

    One of the most common growing disease in late adulthood is Parkinson which is a progressive disease of the nervous system with symptoms including tremor of the hands, arms, legs, jaw and face which is caused by failure of the normal cellular compensatory mechanisms in vulnerable brain regions, bradykinesia or slowness of movement, rigidity or stiffness of the limbs and trunk, postural instability or impaired balance and coordination. One of the main reason for these symptoms is the loss of dopamine which helped the Thalamus to regulate the movement by reporting the sensory information about the movement of the body to the brain. According to McNamara (2017), the loss of dopamine in the brain circuit which disrupts the performance of thalamus.…
