For overweight and obesity is also important to consider: diet, physical activity and motivation…
The origin of obesity is based on the interaction of genetics and environment predisposing trigger, to an imbalance of energy balance caused by increased intake and physical inactivity.
Obesity is the Epidemic of the XXI Century, the so called GLOBESITY. Since 1980 obesity has doubled in the world. In Spain more than half of the population is overweight, and almost 20% are obese. Studies on future predictions warn of a SIGNIFICANT INCREASE in these figures across Europe, with alarming rates of 70% prevalence of overweight and nearly a third of obese patients. But in some countries such as Ireland, it is expected even 90% overweight and 60% obese population.
The association of OBESITY and DIABETES is so intense that has emerged the concept of DIABESITY, who have nearly 400 million people worldwide.

WHAT OUR PATIENTS SAY
Real experiences of people who have been through our clinic
Tengo 29 años y volví a nacer cuando el Dr. Carlos Sala me realizó un by-pass gástrico. Mi peso antes de la operación era de 124 Kg. Hoy peso 60 Kg. Un completo éxito y lo repetiría sin dudarlo. A los tres días estaba ya en mi casa y al mes ya me había incorporado al trabajo.
C.R.N /
Tengo 45 años y he llegado a pesar 160 Kilos antes de ser operado por el doctor Sala en la Clínica Quirón de Valencia. Mi vida me cambió desde la operación, porque mi vida de obeso era muy difícil y triste, y gracias a la reducción de estómago vivo muy feliz y más tranquilo.
