Why Qualified Bariatric Doctors Can Save Your Life

By Sandra Mitchell


In today many young children are already suffering from a global epidemic called obesity. Obesity happens when the rate of metabolism is slower, and the need to consume more food is faster. Thus, children who eat too much sweets and other junk foods coupled with a sedentary life style often end fat and miserable.

Since the 1980s obesity has increased in size throughout the world as 1.4 billions of adults, with ages ranging from 20 and above, have recently been discovered in 2008 as overweight. At least two hundred million men were considered obese while it affected three hundred million women. Because these many people are considering and referred to qualified bariatric doctors who help them reduce weight.

Bariatric surgery, as the name suggest, is a type of invasive aciurgy performed by a qualified surgeon who helps people suffering from extreme obesity by restricting food intake and decreasing the absorption of food within intestine and stomach. This kind of aciurgy was designed to change the usual digestion process by not breaking down food. Thus, reducing the nutrient absorption in the body that promotes risks and disorders.

Before jumping into the next weight loss clinic it is best to know which kind that benefits you. There are about four kinds of aciurgy under the scope of bariatric aciurgy. And classified into two kinds of aciurgy such as the restrictive and malabsorptive.

However surgery is performed either open or with the use of laparoscopy. The open method uses surgical knives to open half inch cuts into the stomach area that uses other smaller devices to remove fat and insert devices around the stomach organ. Compared to laparoscopy which is more preferred by many patients because it offers less complications than the normal open method.

The least famous kind aciurgy is the open method. Because this type of aciurgy requires several or more lengthy incisions around the abdominal area, there is the possibility of contracting microbe and bacteria to the sutured cuts after the operation. It also requires a lengthy healing process because of cuts, and development of other complications might arise. However these two is not the only available bariatric aciurgy.

Restrictive surgeries like the sleeve gastrectomy offer weight loss through reducing stomach volume. The gut is divided and stapled vertically and 85 percent of it is remove leaving a slim tube or sleeve connect to the intestine. Food travels through this tube as well as remove the part that produces ghrelin hormone that induces hunger.

A non reversible surgeries like this can virtually promote a long term reduction of size in the gut. And this is one of the most common type of surgery completed throughout the world. Because this portion is used creating a pouch that is in the size of an egg, and is connected to the intestine bypassing two feet of normal intestine.

Surgery requires removing and inserting tools to promote weight loss. And possible risks and damages might occur after the operation. Keep these things in mind as you consult your doctor.
