When someone is dealing with weight and they cannot seem to get it off, they turn to bariatric surgery. Have you been thinking about this type? Many say it is taking the easy way out, but that is not all true. Below, I am going to give you two sides of the story – I am going to give you 7 pros and 7 cons of bariatric surgery.

First, I am going to start with the Cons of it, then bring in the Pros of it.

7 Cons

7. Urinary Tract Infection

It could cause you to have UTI’s.

6. Bowel Obstruction

Bariatric surgery could also cause you to have bowel obstruction.

5. Obstruction of the Stomach Outlet

Do you see the size of your pinky finger? Well, that is about the size of the outlet post surgery. You need to learn how to chew everything you swallow to be smaller than that. You do not have acid in the pouch, so if you swallow anything that is smaller, it is going to get stuck.

4. Nutrition

It has been stated that bariatric surgery can cause one to have chronic nutritional problems

3. Protein Deficiency

You can develop protein deficiency. This doesn’t sound so great, does it?

2.Vitamin deficiency

Our bodies need certain bodies in order to have beautiful skin and most of all maintain great health. When you have bariatric surgery done, your body could develop a lack of vitamins.

1.Food Intolerances

You could develop food intolerances to foods such as milk sugar, milk, sugar and red meats.
