Overweight and Obesity

Overweight and obesity refer to a buildup of body fat greater than what is considered healthy, which can affect various aspects of health and quality of life.

Why it is treated: it is associated with a higher risk of problems such as metabolic disturbances, blood pressure issues, joint problems, and others, so its management is comprehensive.

Contributing factors: diet, physical activity, rest, and hormonal, emotional, and genetic factors interact with one another.

Which specialist provides support? The clinical nutritionist guides eating habits and the individual plan, ideally as part of a team. If you're interested in managing your weight in a realistic and sustainable way, discussing your goals with a nutrition professional is a good starting point.
