Abstract
The recently published second edition of the GIRO Guideline (Guía española de manejo integral de la obesidad) edited by the Sociedad Española para el Estudio de la Obesidad (SEEDO), whose preparation involved the participation of 35 representatives of different scientific societies, including the Sociedad Española de Patología Digestiva (SEPD), focuses on the cross-cutting and multidisciplinary nature of obesity, a condition experienced by many of our patients that decisively impact their health status, and that we must understand and manage adequately.
