Surgery for metabolic syndrome in Piedras Negras - Bariatric surgeon

Metabolic syndrome encompasses a set of conditions that increase the risk of serious diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, strokes, cancer, and more.

Common causes

Excess body fat is one of the key causes that predisposes the body to develop various diseases related to this syndrome.

Sleep apnea

This disorder causes respiratory interruptions during sleep, affecting proper oxygenation and worsening metabolic problems.

Hypertension

High blood pressure overloads the cardiovascular system and can cause damage to vital organs.

Hyperlipidemia - dyslipidemia

An imbalance in cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood, raising the risk of cardiovascular complications.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)

This condition is characterized by fat accumulation in the liver, typically linked with obesity and high triglycerides.

Overweight and obesity

Excessive accumulation of body fat is a central factor in the development of diseases associated with metabolic syndrome.

Insulin resistance

When the body's cells do not respond effectively to insulin, blood sugar levels rise, which can trigger type 2 diabetes.
