Internal medicine treatments

INTERNAL MEDICINE TREATMENTS:

Internal medicine treatments is key to managing acute and chronic diseases.

In modern times, chronic diseases associated with metabolic disorders as a result of inadequate nutrition, inappropriate lifestyle, reduced physical activity, excess body weight and various forms of addiction are increasingly at the forefront. Timely recognition of the above conditions and disorders is extremely important for long-term preservation and strengthening of health.

Metabolic disorders and metabolic syndrome

In chronic disease conditions such as arterial hypertension, atherosclerosis, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, excess body weight, fatty liver (liver steatosis), arthrosis, malignant diseases and neurological degenerative diseases, insulin resistance is often in the background as one of the key pathophysiological processes.

Timely recognition of insulin resistance and its regulation is a great opportunity to reduce the problem of chronic diseases of modern times.

At the Medical Center Šinigoj, we have paid great attention to this problem and have equipped ourselves with the appropriate professional and technological equipment. We provide patients with modern diagnostic and therapeutic treatment and useful advice in the field of lifestyle and nutrition (dietetics).
