- More About Bariatric Surgery
If you have Type 2 diabetes caused by excess body weight, you may want to consider bariatric surgery.
Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for Type 2 diabetes among patients who are affected because of obesity. The procedure results in improvement or complete remission in nearly all cases, according to the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS).
Bariatric surgery is a good option for individuals who are severely overweight (about 100 pounds or more over their ideal body weight) and who have struggled to lose weight and keep it off.
You may think that all of your favorite foods are off-limits once you have bariatric surgery. However, a post-bariatric-surgery diet can still include meals and snacks you will enjoy.
You just need to keep certain guidelines in mind as you plan your meals.
