Understanding the Obesity-Depression Connection and the Transformative Power of Bariatric Surgery

Introduction:

At Taqtik Health, we understand the complexities of health issues like obesity and depression. Recent studies have uncovered a deeper connection between these two conditions, offering new insights into their management, especially the role of bariatric surgery.

The Interlinked Path of Obesity and Depression:

Recent research, including a study from the University of Cambridge, has shown a bidirectional relationship between obesity and depression. The findings suggest that increases in depressive symptoms can lead to short-term weight gain, particularly in individuals who are overweight or obese. This highlights the intertwined nature of physical and mental health.

The Precedence of Obesity in Mental Health Disorders:

A groundbreaking study reported in Psychology Today revealed that obesity often precedes the diagnosis of mental health disorders. This suggests that effectively managing obesity could play a crucial role in preventing the onset of mental health conditions.

The Role of Bariatric Surgery:

At Taqtik Health, we recognize the potential of bariatric surgery in addressing these intertwined health issues. Bariatric surgery is more than a weight loss procedure; it's a step towards overall health improvement, including mental well-being.

Benefits Beyond Weight Loss:

The weight loss achieved through bariatric surgery can lead to enhanced self-esteem and reduced symptoms of depression and anxiety. This holistic approach to obesity treatment is crucial for ensuring the overall success and improved quality of life for patients.

Patient-Centered Approach:

We believe in a comprehensive treatment plan for our patients considering bariatric surgery. This includes pre-surgical psychological assessments and ongoing mental health support, ensuring a holistic path to wellness.

Conclusion:

Understanding the link between obesity and depression is key to providing effective treatment. Bariatric surgery offers a promising solution, addressing both physical and mental health aspects. At Taqtik Health, we are committed to guiding our patients through this transformative journey with comprehensive care and support.

About Dr. Aislin Azcarate

I was born in Mexico City where I studied at an American school throughout my basic education. At 2012 I started medical school (7 years) at the Facultad Mexicana de Medicina Universidad La Salle, where I was in the top 5 of my class and had a special honors recognition on the CENVAL test when I graduated. I did my internship year in the Peninsula of Yucatan working with indigenous patients. I did my social service year in a small town near Puerto Vallarta named Sayulita, where I worked with both local patients and in private practice with tourists. After graduating I moved to the island of Cozumel and worked for a private hospital where I took care of surgical and hospitalized patients, and hotel conults. I worked there for 6 months during the pandemic tending on COVID patients on the ICU unit. I did a semester of a surgical residency program and currently giving online consults, doing medical translations and assisting on the operating room.
