Dying to Lose Weight
There are a number of risks to consider before undergoing gastric bypass surgery. The statistics show that deaths associated with the surgery are more common than most people believe.
Memphis, TN (PRWEB) February 23, 2006
Gastric bypass surgery is more dangerous than you think. The Journal of the American Medical Association recently reported that 46 out of every 1,000 gastric bypass surgery patients die within a year. Even if they survive the initial surgery, six to nine percent suffer complications requiring more operations, the Dayton Daily News reported.
Many people suffering from obesity turn to gastric bypass surgery in desperation, because they think it is their only alternative to remaining overweight. Undergoing gastric bypass surgery, lap bands, or stomach stapling can be risky. There are other options to risky bariatric surgery, such as a strict diet, vigorous exercise, or herbal supplements.
One company in Memphis believes they have a natural alternative to dangerous gastric bypass surgeries. A spokesman for Selmedica Healthcare Corporation said, “Scientists have proven that filling the stomach with easily-digestible fibers, like those found in Zetacap, can reduce food intake by as much as 70%, with ease.”
Candy Meyer was unable to afford risky gastric bypass surgery, and turned to Zetacap to aid her weight loss. “Now my friends see a totally different person. Thank goodness for something for people who cannot afford the gastric bypass or don't want to have to go through the surgery."
