The Reality of Bariatric SurgeryThe Reality of Bariatric Surgery
# of bariatric cases grew 400% from 1998-2004– 13,386 to 121,055 per year– 220,000 performed in 2008
82% of surgical cases are female
Age– Ages 18-54 accounted for 85.2% of all surgeries– FASTEST GROWTH IN BARIATRIC SURGERY
IS FOR AGES 55-64 (20 fold increase)
RD’s can run, but we cannot hide!Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project, Statistical Brief #23 (January 2007)
EligibilityEligibility BMI
– BMI 35-39.9 with 1 - 2 obesity-related co-morbidities (DM, HTN, dyslipidemia, severe OA, OSA, Pickwinian Syndrome)
– BMI > 40 – New indications for Lap Band - BMI 30-34.9 (not covered by
insurance yet)
Age– Adults over 18 – Controversy over 65 y.o. - evaluated case by case – Adolescent trials are currently being done
Growth must be completedSome insurances may cover it
“Exhausted all non-surgical weight loss options”
CKD/ESRD is NOT a contraindication

Micronutrition Micronutrition
Factors common to all procedures that increase nutritional risk
– Poor eating behaviors,– Decreased nutrient dense foods– Food intolerance– Restricted portion sizes– (Emesis)
Micronutrition - Gastric Micronutrition - Gastric BypassBypass
Etiology:– GERD (PPI’s)– Emesis transit time/diarrhea
Most common deficiencies– Iron (20-51%): HCl– B-12 (35%): HCl, IF– Vit D– Ca– Folate (41-47%)
Micronutrition - Gastric Micronutrition - Gastric BypassBypass
Etiology:– GERD (PPI’s)– Emesis transit time/diarrhea
Most common deficiencies– Iron (20-51%): HCl– B-12 (35%): HCl, IF– Vit D– Ca– Folate (41-47%)
63% of pts developed nutrition deficiencies (Fe, B12, folate) 2 yrs. Post RYGB including those who were compliant with the vitamin regimen. (n=140)
- Brolin, et al 1991
Micronutrition - Sleeve Micronutrition - Sleeve gastrectomygastrectomy
Etiology transit time – Emesis/Nausea– GERD (PPI’s) HCl
Common nutrient def.– B12: 18% ?– Fe: 18% ? – Zn: 35% ?– Folic Acid?– Vit D?
Micronutrition - Sleeve Micronutrition - Sleeve gastrectomygastrectomy
Little data on micronutrition and SG
1 yr. results without MVI– 4.9-43% Fe def. – 9-18.1% B12 def.– 9.8-22% folate def.

Micronutrition - AGBMicronutrition - AGB
Etiology po intake– No alterations to digestive processes
-“AGB has minor effects on normal physiological digestive processes and, as a result, selective nutritional deficiencies are presumed to be unusual…Closer clinical follow up is more necessary (adjustments) after AGB than RYGB, whereas the reverse is true for perioperative nutritional evaluations.”
- Ziegler, O., Sirveaux, MA, et al, Diab. & Met. 2009, p. 544 & 553

The The Standard SupplementationStandard Supplementation“There is little agreement on exactly how to manage
micronutrition in post-operative bariatric surgery patients.”
- Jacqueline Jacques, ND Micronutrition for the Weight Loss Surgery Patient (2006)
Many patients will be malnourished pre-operatively leading to more aggressive supplementation after surgery– 51-62% pre-operative Vit D deficiency
Obese individuals may have needs above and beyond normal recommendations– Contributing mechanisms
Multiple medications Years of poor diet Underlying inflammation
Recommended SupplementationRecommended Supplementation

Multiple vitamin x 2 (100% RDA including iron)Sublingual B121,500 mg Ca + DThiamin (B complex)?Supplemental iron for menstruating women?Bile salt replacement prn
Tablets or capsules can be tolerated 6 mo. and beyond
Multiple Vitamin and Calcium should not be taken together and
should be in divided doses
Common “Bariatric” Eating Common “Bariatric” Eating Guidelines Guidelines
1. Protein and Produce- At least 60 g. protein/day- Liquids and “mushy” calories not recommended- Foods not tolerated well: bread, rice, dry meat, some produce
2. 2-3 meals per day- breakfast optional- limited snacking
3. Avoid eating and drinking at the same time
3. 1200-1400 calories per day long-term
A word about renal disease and bariatrics
Bariatric Surgery improves DM, obesity and HTN, three of the leading causes of renal disease
“The more earlier we treat CKD in the disease process with bariatric surgery, the more favorable the impact on the kidney.” - Wei-Jei Lee.
Be aware of medical absorption changes
Monitor labs and adjust vitamins/macronutrients as appropriate
