however, the most affected are low- and middle-income countries, which include Mexico and much of Latin America, according to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.worldobesity.org\/resources\/resource-library\/world-obesity-atlas-2023\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">World Obesity Atlas 2022<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For this reason, both the Conference and IOR seek to address the problem from a local perspective that takes into account the lack of information currently available about the genetics of Latin Americans that could make them more likely to live with obesity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMexicans get sick differently than Anglo-Saxons,\u201d says Rito.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, by integrating the research carried out in Mexico, Latin America, and the world, the director of the IOR and his team of researchers believe that it will be possible to propose new solutions that address the problem comprehensively, practically, and effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur dream is to have better foods, new treatments and also influence the public policy agenda,\u201d says Rito.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Did you find this story interesting?
