Dra, what were the causes that led you to create the Daat Foundation?
My beginnings in medicine date back more than 32 years. The specialty of Nutrition and Diabetology have always been of great interest to me since I studied the subject at the Hospital de Clínicas. I was fascinated from the beginning by this subject. It shows how a simple molecule such as glucose can cause so much systemic damage and also how it can help the person to live with a good quality of life, despite having this treacherous disease because of how silent it is, since its Complications occur over time, without warning or symptoms. This disease slowly erodes the arteries and causes enormous damage to our body in the medium and long term.
This is why I created the DAAT Foundation 12 years ago, a non-profit organization whose mission is to help prevent and treat obesity and diabetes. This determines a challenge for me, and I transfer it to other spaces of life where everything behaves in almost the same way. There is always a challenge to overcome and go through. If we do not treat in time and visualize what hurts us, it will affect our future in some way and we will find ourselves involved in many situations that also occur in silence, until they appear causing damage and leaving traces.
What is the importance of carrying out a good diet and what services do you provide as a professional in the area?
We are what we eat and that is what I identify with. Learn to discern between what makes us good and bad. How we eat and what we allow our body to enter. This is learned every day. This is what I’m passionate about. Teach to live well, to be healthy, and to enjoy doing it.
From my profession I teach healthy habits, improving people’s quality of life. I give it a holistic approach since it involves several areas of the person, from the emotional to the physical.
I focus on the patient as a whole, I am interested in their history, their current situation, their environment and past. The patient is a whole, it is the integration of his body with his soul.
I want to help from this approach, leaving a mark on each one and knowing that I exercise it in the best possible way. From the human side and from my knowledge and learning that I incorporate every day.
This is my passion.
