So you've tried every weight loss plan under the sun. You've lost
a few pounds, gained them back, lost a few more - it's a never ending
cycle. Now you are ready to nip this problem in the bud for good. Health
issues are starting to get out of hand. Weight loss surgery has become
an excellent option!
While you would like to lose weight to look great, bariatric surgeons will not consider patients for cosmetic reasons, but for improvements in physical and emotional health only. Results can be dramatic and long-lasting! The American Medical Association has now declared obesity a disease, and many insurance companies, including Medicare, will pay for most or all of the surgery. Due to this change, surgery is now more affordable.
TYPES OF WEIGHT LOSS SURGERY
• Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: a small pouch is created at the top of the stomach to receive a small amount of food, then the small intestine is attached to the pouch, bypassing a portion of the small intestine
• Adjustable Gastric Banding: a tiny stomach pouch is created using an adjustable band containing an inflatable balloon, restricting the amount of food in the stomach
• Sleeve Gastrectomy: a part of the stomach is removed, leaving a tube-like pouch that holds less food, removing the hunger-producing hormone
• Duodenal Switch: partial removal of the stomach that limits the amount of of food through intestinal bypass.
Here are five reasons to consider these types of weight loss surgery:
1. REVERSAL OF TYPE 2 DIABETES
Weight loss surgery can have an enormous effect on Type-2 Diabetes, improving or completely reversing the symptoms.
2. IMPROVEMENT IN CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE SYMPTOMS
Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) means that blood moves through the heart and body slower than usual, and the heart has to pump much harder to get oxygen and nutrients to the body. The heart muscle walls stiffen, and the kidneys respond by retaining fluid and salt, causing the heart to work harder to pump fluids through the body. Weight loss surgery is recommended to eliminate high blood pressure and to lessen heart failure complications.
3. JOINT PAIN ELIMINATION
Stress and pain on the joints is caused by excess weight, and helps with rheumatoid arthritis.
4. OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA (OSA) IMPROVEMENT
Obstructive Sleep Apnea is a condition in which the airway is blocked during sleep. Surgery has been known to eliminate this condition, as well as the snoring that goes along with it.
5. ASTHMA
Asthma sufferers with gastoresophogeal disease benefit from gastric bypass surgery because gastric reflux is eliminated, and asthma attacks are fewer and less severe.
With today advanced technology, most weight loss surgeries today can be done laparoscopically, with minimal hospitalization and fewer complications. With weight loss surgery safer than ever, you have even more reason to welcome health and vitality back into your life!
