What is it
What is a gastric bypass?
Reduce el estómago y modifica el paso intestinal.
The gastric bypass crea un pequeño reservorio gástrico y deriva parte del intestino, de modo que el paciente come menos y absorbe menos calorías, con un efecto positivo sobre enfermedades como la diabetes tipo 2. Otras opciones son la Vertical gastrectomy (gastric sleeve) in Girona and the Duodenal crossing in Girona.
How does it work
Gastric bypass surgery works by changing both the size and the way the stomach and small intestine handle the food you eat.Here's a simplified explanation of how it generally functions:* **Reducing Stomach Size:** The surgeon creates a small pouch at the top of your stomach. This pouch is much smaller than a normal stomach, so you'll feel full with a lot less food. * **Rerouting the Small Intestine:** The surgeon then divides your small intestine and connects the lower part of it directly to the small stomach pouch. This bypasses a large portion of the upper small intestine, which is where most nutrient absorption typically occurs.**How this leads to weight loss:**1. **Reduced Food Intake:** Because your stomach pouch is so small, you can only eat a limited amount of food at one time, leading to reduced calorie intake. 2. **Malabsorption:** By bypassing a section of the small intestine, fewer calories and nutrients are absorbed by your body. 3. **Hormonal Changes:** The rerouting of the digestive system also leads to changes in gut hormones. These changes can affect appetite, satiety (feeling full), and metabolism, often making you feel less hungry and more satisfied.**In summary:** Gastric bypass surgery makes your stomach smaller and changes the path food takes through your digestive system, resulting in eating less, absorbing fewer calories, and experiencing hormonal shifts that promote weight loss.
