Why Is Bariatric Surgery the Solution?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For some people, any diet, exercise, or lifestyle change cannot significantly reduce their excessive body weight. This reality leads to frustration, depression, and, in many cases, serious health problems.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, for many in such situations, weight loss through bariatric surgery can be an option.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is Obesity Dangerous, and What Consequences Can It Have on You and Your Body?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Excess weight is a chronic and progressive disease that can affect multiple organs in the body. Individuals with severe clinical obesity have a medical risk of disability or premature death. The estimated number of deaths, nearly 280,000 annually, is attributed to obesity among the American adult population. At the top of the list are adult morbidities such as diabetes and high blood pressure. High blood pressure caused by clinical obesity can lead to heart attacks, congestive heart failure, and strokes.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Is Obesity Treated Surgically?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Surgery as a solution for weight loss through food intake restriction and the interruption of the digestion process is an option for seriously obese patients who have been unsuccessfully treated by other means of weight loss.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When other medical methods have failed, bariatric surgery can offer long-term solutions for shedding excess body weight for patients with a serious obesity problem.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are You a Candidate for Bariatric Surgery?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Today, bariatric surgery is considered the gold standard for treating pathological obesity when conservative methods of weight reduction have been exhausted.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This form of operative treatment is also called <\/span>metabolic surgery<\/b> because weight loss <\/span>positively affects comorbidities such as arterial hypertension, insulin resistance, and diabetes mellitus.<\/b> Considering all this, the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) and the International Federation for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery and Metabolic Disorders (IFSO) have presented a supplement to the indications for metabolic and bariatric surgery.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Based on decades of analysis of the results of bariatric and metabolic surgery, candidates for the operation are individuals:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
