Mas Watad | Pioneering Culturally Grounded Wellness Solutions

With rising cases of lifestyle-related diseases in the Middle East, leaders like Mas Watad are redefining the entire scenario. A visionary health entrepreneur, speaker, and clinical dietitian, Watad is the Co-founder & President of Dawsat International Ltd., a scientifically validated health platform transforming how wellness is approached in the region. 

Watad started exploring the path of entrepreneurship from an early age, instilling in her the commitment to becoming a leader in the field of community health and wellness. Watad’s interest in preventive healthcare even led her to pursue Clinical Dietetics at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. But she soon noticed the gap between health and traditional food habits in her community, inspiring her to find solutions to promote wellness without compromising the cultural practices. 

As an innovative solution, Dawsat is a revolution in the healthcare sector of the region, proven to save millions in public spending on a national scale. The platform blends tradition, science, and sustainable impact, offering culturally rooted wellness options. Dawsat is not just limited to being a weight-loss system, Watad shares, “It’s a lifestyle process rooted in culture, backed by science.”
