By Kathleen Brown


Many people fear of becoming fat for the bad reputation it receives from the media. It has become epidemic that affects many individuals everyday across the world. Not only does it compromises the health, but it aggravates other medical conditions that an obese man or women already have.

The simple way of preventing weight gain is through diet and exercise. But for people suffering from obesity and rapid weight gain it requires more than that. Major health clinics in New York advocate the use of Gastric Banding and Sleeve Gastrectomy.

The body mass index is used to measure the weight of people. It is used to find out whether they are below the suggested weight for their age and height or going beyond it. Teens and children with a BMI that is below the ninety five and above the eighty five percentile are considered overweight.

But obesity is considered when youth and teenager go beyond the ninety five percentile. Differentiating between obesity and overweight is important as these two is not in the same league. Overweight means the person carries extra fat around the body due to lack of exercise, or living a sedentary lifestyle.

However malabsorption prevents nutrients and vitamins from being absored into the body system. This effectively reduces weight loss but complications in both categories are still possible. The highly performed procedure are gastric bypass and only about 20 percent of restrictive operations are made each year.

Patient suffering from diseases of lung and heart who are overweight and obese benefit greatly from this procedure. Because of short operating duration and it does not bypass anything organ, that most surgeons believe that this is more advisable to these groups of patient. However it varies from patient to patient because not everyone can have these procedure, but often times it is performed immediately during one where the liver is too large or scar tissues have lined the intestine that prevents gastric bypass to happen.

LSG is a first stage surgery which means after twelve to eight months gastric bypass can be performed. The reason since most patients who have excessive weights are more exposed to risks and complications than patients who have reduced significantly after LSG. The liver is smaller compared to its original size, and anesthesia is not as dangerous. LSG and gastric bypass is two sensible but different operations made to high risk patients because it lowers further complication.

Gastric banding is another procedure that uses a belt wound around the upper area of the stomach to adjust the flow of food traveling from the stomach to the intestines. This band is also made of silicone and uses saline to tighten the band. And with its port hidden beneath the skin this is where saline is inserted and remove.

Beverages such as fizzy drinks, ice cream, and other tasty sweet foods are often sold at price that kids can buy easily. That is why preventing obesity in youth including adults is the job of every bariatric surgeon. However getting in touch with a dietician should be the first priority before consulting a surgeon to have your kids abdominal area opened and operated on.
