Management of obesity and diabetes through prevention

Overview

Medical specialists are emphasizing the importance of diet and prevention in managing chronic conditions like obesity and diabetes. Experts from the Fermentation and Integral Nutrition Program (PROFENI) suggest that consuming fermented foods, such as yogurt, may improve gut microbiota diversity and promote healthier metabolic profiles, potentially lowering the risk of type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular pathologies, and abdominal obesity.

In Chile, representatives from Novo Nordisk have advocated for treating obesity as a “chronic, multifactorial disease.” Addressing high prevalence rates in regions like Magallanes requires strengthening prevention efforts, combating misinformation, and improving access to treatments while navigating challenges such as geographic distance, climate, and limited access to healthy food options.
