Description
Basically, gastric bypass is a form of surgery wherein a patient is helped to lose weight through the process of changing how the small intestine and the stomach handle the foods that are consumed. When the operation is complete, the stomach then becomes smaller and a person feels full when consuming even less food.
Technically, the food that had been eaten no longer goes to the parts of the small intestine and stomach that break them down. This event keeps the body from absorbing the calories from the food that are consumed.
