How Gastric Banding And Sleeve Gastrectomy Prevents Obesity In People

By Kathleen Brown


Young children today suffer from bad diet and poor exercise. Not every parent is educated enough on how to take care of their offspring. And most do not have access to health clinics which promote the improvement of children health. Statistic show that obesity in youth is a common problem within first world countries.

Most age between 2 to 19 years old and about 17 percent are affected by it. Which means that about 12.7 million of youth in New York between those ages are overweight. However knowing if Gastric Banding and Sleeve Gastrectomy are the best type of surgery for kids is still dependent on the advice of a qualified and experienced professional health care worker.

Because it effectively restricts the in take of food while immediately reducing consumption rate for people who eat too much. Both of these procedures are performed by a qualified bariatric surgeon who is referred by your primary health care taker. But knowing the difference between the two invasive procedure helps define if they are high or low risk.

But obesity is considered when youth and teenager go beyond the ninety five percentile. Differentiating between obesity and overweight is important as these two is not in the same league. Overweight means the person carries extra fat around the body due to lack of exercise, or living a sedentary lifestyle.

In that sense it limits the entry of food and does not decrease the absorption of vitamins, nutrients, and minerals. Food passes through and is digested normally like a regular stomach. Patients report becoming full after a few spoonfuls of their meal and hunger inducing hormones such as ghrelin is decreased in the process.

Sleeve gastrectomy requires 5 to 6 short incisions around the gut area. A laparoscope is inserted into one of these, so surgeons can document the operation along with assessing different areas for risk of complication. At least seventy five percent is removed from the stomach then a narrow silicone tube is inserted between an opening from the intestines and stomach.

However there are instances where the community is not a place for people especially youth to live and play. Most are unable to step outside their homes without getting involve in accidents like getting into fights and street brawls with undesirable people and personalities. Most parents are scared to leave their children in day care centers because most are not run by qualified professionals.

Other factors include being exposed to an unlimited supply of junk foods, parents often give into the demands of their children because they do not want to be seen as a bad parent. But stepping up and showing the limits often helps in putting spoiled and argumentative children in their place. But even so parents are not able to outright prevent their kids from buying school bought foods that are high in sugar.

Because of the way it restricts food, the brain sends transmitters through the neurons and into the gut to create fullness. A small pouch produces these signals, and when is filled up then the same thing will happen. The most common brand name that GB surgeries uses are called lap bands and is available in different sizes.
