Gastric Bypass in Mexico
Gastric Bypass in Mexico (aka Roux-en-Y) is one of the most popular weight loss surgery in Mexico . In a Gastric Bypass, a small pouch is segmented off from the remaining stomach tissue, creating a new stomach roughly the size of a golf ball and no larger than a tennis ball. The middle section of the small intestines (known as the jejunum) is then rerouted to the newly created pouch, bypassing the stomach and duodenum (the first section of the small intestines).
Decreasing the size of the stomach and bypassing a portion of intestines not only reduces the amount of food that can be consumed and leaves you with a feeling of fullness (satiety), but also shortens the time it takes for food to pass through the body and limits the absorption of bad nutrients like saturated fats. This type of bypass operation has proven to be an effective way of losing weight and keeping it off.
Gastric Bypass has two mechanisms of action:
- Restrictive: Creating a smaller stomach pouch (capacity of 1-2 oz.) causes you to eat smaller amounts of food.
- Metabolic: Changing your gut hormones helps you feel full longer, contributes to appetite suppression, and can reverse obesity-caused metabolic syndrome.
Benefits
- Typically lose between 60-80% of their excess body weight.
- Improves health, mobility and cognitive functions.
- Improves most obesity-related comorbidities like T2DM, high blood pressure, lipid disorder, triglycerides disorder, severe joint disease, obesity-related severe psychological problems, sleep apnea, chronic lumbar pain, and fatty liver.
- Minimally invasive procedure (laparoscopic, the surgeon only needs to make a few small incisions in your abdomen to operate).
- Stops or decreases the consumption of medications.
- Low risk of complications compared to other procedures like Cholecystectomy or Hysterectomy.
- Reduction in hunger sensation.
- Higher quality of sleep.
- Lasting, long term results. Studies show that up to 20 years after surgery, most maintain more than 50 percent of their excess weight loss.
