This was declined for prod because it is not eligible having been previously deleted at AFD. The following is the prod rationale -


 * The article relies on primary sources WP:PRIMARY and gives undue emphasis to the ideas of Harold Bays. Messages on the talk page indicate that several editors believe that the article should be deleted, and none have suggested any reason that the article should continue to exist. Factual accuracy has been disputed for over a year. The article was proposed for deletion (and the result was Delete) in 2008 because the term was a non-notable neologism, and the current article appears to have the same problems.

 * Redirect to metabolic syndrome. The term itself seems suspect, but the combination of obesity, hypertension and diabetes is a known medical issue. Oaktree b (talk) 16:32, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
 * And only the first source uses the term, the rest seem to be drawing on "Metabolic Syndrome" to uses as sources here, when the articles don't use this term. It's trying to prove something that isn't said in the sources used I think. Oaktree b (talk) 16:34, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete The title is not an established term, and it's not our business to promote new words for known issues or combinations of issues. XOR&#39;easter (talk) 17:46, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete Don't redirect from a bad term such as this. It's all original research and novel ideas not suitable for an encyclopedia.— rsjaffe 🗣️ 19:33, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete the term seems to have gained little to no traction. Metabolic syndrome is the proper and established way of discussing this concept. Draken Bowser (talk) 08:35, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
