Clinic for Integral Care of the Obese Patient offers people suffering from obesity a long-term multidisciplinary program to treat and guide them while they lose weight.
Obesity is a latent and potentially severe condition that affects people's general health, reducing their life expectancy by 15 years on average. For people whose weight is over twice their ideal body weight, the risk of premature death is doubled in comparison to people whose weight is normal. Another problem that goes with this condition is that it is difficult for people to receive long-term treatment to lose weight.
Obesity is one of the conditions that has shown the greatest increase around the world.
The scale of the problem has led the World Health Organization to consider obesity as a public health problem. It is currently the second highest cause of death after smoking.
The World Health Organization says that in 2000 there were 330 million obese adults around the world.
