We are what we eat

The intestinal flora is a collection of microorganisms in our digestive system in symbiosis, i.e. in mutually beneficial coexistence, especially bacteria, fungi and other unicellular organisms that contribute to the maintenance of our health. Interestingly, the bacteria that make up the gut flora well outnumber the cells that make up the human body. As the saying goes, “we are what we eat” – so let’s learn about the intestinal flora’s effects on our bodies from Dr. Rose Private Hospital’s dietitian, Nóra Galló.

Insulin resistance: why ’fashionable illness’ doesn’t cut it

Although insulin resistance (IR) is a popular topic nowadays, we still shouldn’t refer to it as a fashionable illness, rather it’s an endemic disease, according to Nóra Galló, a dietician at Dr. Rose Private Hospital. It affects a lot of people, perhaps more than the number of people with diabetes, which itself numbers in the millions. This is why early detection and diagnosis of IR is of paramount importance.

Insulin resistance: help is at hand

You are not feeling well, you’ve started to gain weight and can’t lose it even though you are dieting, you have become more tired and sweaty, you get irritated by things for no good reason and sometimes you can't control your appetite - these are the typical complaints that a patient with insulin resistance presents at the endocrinology clinic. These symptoms were described by Dr. Illés Gyula Balogh, Dr. Rose Private Hospital’s endocrinologist and gynecologist, who has had many positive experiences helping infertile couples, indeed often his patients become pregnant after a few months’ treatment, hence his desk is decorated with countless mugs bearing baby photos. We discussed the identification, testing, dangers and healing of insulin resistance with him.

In addition, the antioxidant-rich acai, mangosteen, goji and pomegranate ingredients nourish the skin.
