Dietetics and Nutrition
Obesity and excess of weight are health problems, not only because they belong
to
Cardiovascular High Risk Factors but also because they often imply an unstable
emotional condition, with feelings of anxiety, insecurity, anger or low esteem.
A bad nutrition accelerates the natural process of ageing and that shows internal and externally in our external appearances with loss of firmness and elasticity of skin, weakness in hair and nails, underskin accumulation of fat and cellulitis, among others.
The first approach of obesity must have a global plan where we first focus on the correction of all metabolical factors (glycemia, uric acid, cholesterol), thus guaranteeing a PREVENTION of future cardiovascular happenings, ostheoarticular difficulties, among others, and reaching a welfare state it will end up in a physical and psychical improvement of the patient.
1. NUTRITION
- Global control of obesity, control of Cardiovascular High Risk Factors.
- Hypocaloric diets.
- Proteinic diets
BODY TREATMENTS
- Mesotherapy for the treatment of cellulitis and flaccidity.
2. DIET OF PROTEINIC CONTRIBUTION
The diet of proteinic contribution (DPC) consists of highly reducing the contribution of glucids and lipids in our diet, main source of energy in normal conditions and giving exclusively proteins of high biological value. In this situation, our organism must find an alternative way for the obtention of energy and this is the degradation of fat reserves.
This contribution of proteins of high biological value may keep the structural part
of our body (skeleton, muscles, skin and organs) and implies a selective loss of
weight upon a degradation of our fat tissue.
DPC requires an strict medical control during which a clinic and anaylitic observance
will be carried out to assure good tolerance to diet. To avoid any kind of lack,
it is recommended to complement diet with vitamins, oligoelements, calcium, magnesium,
essential fat acids...
Once obtained the loss of weight desired, we enter the second phase, as important
as the previous one, that is "Food Reeducation", in which we keep on introducing
all of the foods and the patient gradually acquires the necessary food habits which
will allow him to keep the weight in the long term.
3. BODY MESOTHERAPY
It consists of the subcutaneous or intradermical admnistration of several homeopathical substances or little doses through multiple injections applied to the selected area. Their effects are:
- Activation of local circulation.
- Improvement of tissue oxigenation.
- Lipolitic effect.
- Reaffirmation effect.
The main indications are the treatment of Cellulitis and the treatment of Flaccidity. Depending on the predominant problem in the patient, we'll choose the most suitable treatment.
We normally indicate weekly sessions and normally eight-ten sessions are needed.
Once the treatment is finished, we recommend to do maintenance sessions.
