For many patients, the benefits of weight loss, such as decreases in blood glucose, lipids, and blood pressure and\u00a0increase in physical activity, will outweigh the risks of surgical complications. Proper patient selection, thorough preoperative\u00a0nutritional education, and postoperative nutritional follow-up contribute to the long-term management of the metabolic\u00a0abnormalities of obesity. Bariatric surgery is divided into 2 major categories: restrictive procedures and combination of malabsorptive\u00a0with restrictive procedures. The more dramatic weight loss is generally associated with the combined procedures.\u00a0There is an increased risk of specific nutritional deficiencies associated with these types of surgery. With proper nutritional\u00a0supplementation and frequent monitoring of nutritional status, these deficiencies can be successfully managed. This article\u00a0reviews the most common bariatric surgeries and their typical dietary support and reviews critical nutrition care in regards\u00a0to total parenteral nutrition for the morbidly obese patient, following bariatric surgery.<\/p>\n [\/summary]<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Bariatric surgery is currently the most effective method of sustainable weight loss among morbidly obese patients.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":402,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[9],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hjnutrdiet.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/239"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hjnutrdiet.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hjnutrdiet.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hjnutrdiet.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/402"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hjnutrdiet.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=239"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.hjnutrdiet.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/239\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hjnutrdiet.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=239"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hjnutrdiet.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=239"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hjnutrdiet.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=239"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
