For years, gastric bypass surgery has been recognized as an effective solution for severe obesity. But what about the long-term perspective? A 6-year prospective study, published in JAMA and led by researchers at the University of Utah, revealed compelling genuine outcomes that affirm the sustainable transformation provided by this surgery
Long lasting loss weight
Patients who underwent gastric bypass achieved an average loss of 27.7% of their initial body weight, even six years after the procedure. This represents a genuinely higher outcome compared to any medical intervention or supervised diet, underscoring the sustainable transformation achieved through the surgery
Remission of Chronic Diseases
The benefits extend far beyond just the scale, showcasing genuine outcomes in health:
Type 2 Diabetes: 62% remission
Hypertension: 42% remission
HDL (good cholesterol): 67% improvement
Significant reduction in glucose, insulin, and triglycerides
These figures highlight the sustainable transformation in overall health experienced by patients.
Reduced Cardiovascular Risk
Improvements in lipids, blood pressure, and glucose are sustained over time, leading to a genuine reduction in the risk of coronary heart disease. This demonstrates a sustainable transformation in cardiovascular health.
Physical Well-being > Emotional Health
While the physical component drastically improves, the study also highlights the importance of psychological support. The emotional and social changes are just as important as the physical ones, contributing to a sustainable transformation in overall well-being.
