Metabolic syndrome (MetS) has become a growing risk factor of some non-communicable diseases. Increase of greenhouse gas emissions affects the planet.
To assess the association between MetS severity and amount of carbon dioxide (CO) emitted in an adult population.
Cross-sectional study (n = 6646; 55-76-year-old-men; 60-75-year-old-women with MetS).
Dietary habits were assessed using a pre-validated semi quantitative 143-item food frequency questionnaire. The amount of CO emitted due to the production of food consumed by person and day was calculated using a European database, and the severity of the MetS was calculated with the MetS Severity Score.
Higher glycaemia levels were found in people with higher CO emissions. The risk of having high severe MetS was related to high CO emissions.
Low CO emissions diet would help to reduce MetS severity. Advantages for both health and the environment were found following a more sustainable diet.

代谢综合征（MetS）已成为一些非传染性疾病的日益增长的风险因素。温室气体排放的增加影响着地球。
评估成年人代谢综合征严重程度与二氧化碳（CO）排放量之间的关系。
横断面研究（n=6646；55-76 岁男性；60-75 岁患有 MetS 的女性）。
使用经过预先验证的半定量 143 项食物频率问卷评估饮食习惯。使用欧洲数据库计算因个人和每天食用的食物而产生的 CO 排放量，并使用代谢综合征严重程度评分计算代谢综合征的严重程度。
CO 排放量较高的人群血糖水平较高。高 CO 排放量与发生严重代谢综合征的风险相关。
低 CO 排放量饮食有助于降低代谢综合征的严重程度。遵循更可持续的饮食既有利于健康，也有利于环境。
