FIND THE TOP BARIATRIC SURGERY AND HEART DISEASE www.healthylifebariatrics.com

BARIATRIC SURGERY AND HEART DISEASE Obesity is a major risk factor for heart disease. Bariatric surgery has emerged as a transformative option for individuals struggling with obesity Among these comorbidities, a critical area of concern is the relationship between bariatric surgery and heart disease. www.healthylifebariatrics.com

WHAT IS BARIATRIC SURGERY GASTRIC BYPASS SLEEVE GASTRECTOMY this surgery divides the stomach into a small upper pouch and a larger lower remnant pouch and re-routes the small intestine to connect to both this surgery removes approximately 75% of the stomach, leaving a narrow tube- like stomach or "sleeve" www.healthylifebariatrics.com

OBESITY AND HEART DISEASE Excess body weight places undue stress on the cardiovascular system, leading to inflammation, arterial stiffness, a higher risk of atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, heart failure, and stroke Adults with obesity are more likely to have conditions that increase heart disease risk like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and type 2 diabetes www.healthylifebariatrics.com

METABOLIC CHANGES POST- SURGERY Bariatric surgery induces profound metabolic changes, affecting insulin sensitivity, lipid profiles, and inflammation. These changes go beyond mere weight loss, influencing cardiovascular risk factors directly associated with heart disease. Impact on Hypertension and Diabetes Research suggests that bariatric surgery can lead to the resolution or improvement of hypertension and diabetes www.healthylifebariatrics.com

IMPROVED CARDIOVASCULAR HEALTH Weight loss: On average, patients lose 14-25% of their total body weight after bariatric surgery, greatly improving obesity (10). This takes pressure off the heart. Blood pressure: High blood pressure is present in 60-70% of bariatric surgery patients prior to surgery Cholesterol: Total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglyceride levels decrease markedly after surgery (13). HDL cholesterol increases.
