Surgery for metabolic syndrome in Los Cabos - Bariatric surgeon

Metabolic syndrome is a set of disorders that, when they occur together, increase the risk of developing cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, diabetes, cancer, and other serious diseases.

Common causes

Excess weight is one of the common causes of this syndrome, as it increases the likelihood of developing these conditions.

Sleep apnea

It interrupts breathing during rest, worsening the risks associated with metabolic syndrome.

Hypertension

It strains the heart and blood vessels, increasing the risk of chronic diseases.

Hyperlipidemia - dyslipidemia

Imbalances in lipid and triglyceride levels that affect cardiovascular health.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)

It is a manifestation of fat accumulation in the liver due to poor metabolic management.

Overweight and obesity

Obesity not only increases metabolic risks but also makes it harder to manage these conditions.

Insulin resistance

Insulin resistance increases the risk of chronic hyperglycemia and type 2 diabetes.

Treatments and procedures

Bariatric procedures help reduce weight through pharmacological therapies, surgery, or non-surgical methods. With weight loss, many of these conditions improve, reducing the risks associated with them.
