According to the National Survey on Health and Nutrition (ENSANUT), more than 75% of the adult population in Mexico suffers from overweight or obesity, which significantly increases the risk of metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. In light of this situation, it is crucial to have specialized medical treatments that provide a comprehensive and sustainable approach.
Coinciding with World Obesity Day, nutrition specialists backed by scientific evidence presented Vitahealth, formerly known as Metabolic Medicine. This center specializes in the comprehensive management of obesity and metabolic disorders, offering innovative and personalized solutions based on the latest science and technology.
Vitahealth's multidisciplinary approach combines clinical nutrition, bariatrics, mental health, and aesthetic medicine to ensure effective and sustainable results in patients' health and quality of life. It is essential to understand that the treatment of obesity goes beyond simply counting calories and exercising, as it is a complex disease that requires comprehensive medical, nutritional, psychological, and metabolic attention.
Dr. Luis Dorado, Specialist in Clinical Nutrition and Comprehensive Obesity Management, stated: "Our goal is to transform lives by promoting health and sustainable changes towards a healthy lifestyle." Studies have shown that losing 5-10% of body fat can have significant impacts on blood pressure, glucose levels, and lipid profiles, reducing the risk of long-term complications.
Institutions such as the Mayo Clinic and Imperial College London are using artificial intelligence and machine learning to analyze data related to gut health, glucose levels, and individual metabolism, allowing for the creation of personalized meal plans. Therefore, it is crucial to individualize nutritional treatment for each person, adapting it to their specific metabolic needs.
The treatments offered by Vitahealth include nutritional adjustments based on metabolic markers, pharmacological therapies if necessary, minimally invasive procedures, and psychological support to ensure treatment adherence and foster a healthy relationship with food and the body. The success of patients is not only based on weight loss but also on the overall improvement of their well-being, energy, and quality of life.
