To better understand how bariatric surgery works, it’s important to understand what happens during the normal digestive process.

Bariatric Surgery is mostly performed on the person who has obesity and wants to lose weight. It is the procedure that causes weight loss by the restriction of the amount of food that can hold by the stomach. This surgery is recommended to those who have a BMI of at least 40, or a BMI of at least 35 with some medical conditions like diabetes.
