Obesity

Obesity is classified as a disease and it is a condition in which one has severely too much body fat than is needed so much so that it may hinder normal activities that one should be able to do. Although alternative non-surgical weight loss procedures and programs may be effective for some people trying to fight with obesity, others may opt for weight loss surgery to deal with the condition.

Mini Gastric Bypass

Mini Gastric Bypass is a gastric bypass procedure used for the purpose of weight loss, which uses a loop of small bowl instead of the Y-shape as in a usual gastric bypass and is used sometimes as an alternative to normal gastric bypass because of its simplicity. There is a risk though of the bile and pancreatic enzymes in the bowel going into the esophagus and causing inflammation or ulceration.
