Hundreds of medical studies prove that a new, healthier life is waiting for the vast majority of people who decide to have weight-loss surgery (WLS). That's because many of the diseases and health conditions associated with obesity simply disappear or are no longer a major problem after a patient has WLS.
For example, did you know that weight-loss surgery can actually cure Type 2 diabetes? It's true! In fact, a very high proportion of patients - about 4 out of every 5 people - experience a diabetes remission a few weeks to a year after bariatric surgery. But what about those patients who are not cured? The good news is that almost all of them are able to drastically reduce their use of diabetes medication and greatly improve their quality of life.
The October 13, 2004, issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association reviewed 130 studies involving 22,000 obese or morbidly obese patients. This research revealed that WLS dramatically improved many other serious health problems affecting severely overweight people. These conditions include: high blood pressure, high cholesterol, hypertension, heart disease, sleep disorders, asthma, infertility and sexual performance problems.
The overall level of wellness achieved after WLS depends upon many factors. They include the type of WLS performed ( gastric bypass or lap band ), the pre-surgery health of the patient, and the post-surgery commitment of the patient to engage in a healthy diet, exercise and nutrition program.
