Type 2 Diabetes Surgery

 

Type 2 diabetes, known as diabetes mellitus among the people, is a disease that occurs due to unhealthy and malnutrition, inactivity and irregular life. Non-insulin dependent diabetes is a disease that can be cured by adopting healthy habits. However, sometimes the decrease in mobility due to advanced age or the inability to make changes in lifestyle due to psychosocial reasons and the fact that it is very difficult for people to diet in certain weight ranges has increased the tendency to bariatric surgery in obesity. With this operation, which is used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, individuals can lose a lot of weight in a short time. As the amount of fat decreases and the body uses the free glucose in the blood accordingly, blood sugar and insulin levels come to the ideal range. Thus, type 2 diabetes treatment is realized.

 

How is Type 2 Diabetes Surgery Performed?

 

Diabetes surgery, as it is called in the literature, bariatric surgery is stomach reduction surgery. It is based on the principle of reducing the volume of the stomach by removing a certain part of the stomach under general anesthesia. Since the part of the stomach that increases the synthesis of the hunger hormone is also removed, it also helps to control the appetite. Thus, both the stomach volume will be reduced and the person's hunger rate will decrease. These two mechanisms facilitate the weight loss process of obese individuals. After bariatric surgery, patients can usually be discharged within a few days. This period can be extended or shortened if the physician following the patient deems it necessary.

 

What Should Be Considered Before Diabetes Surgery?

 

Bariatric surgery is an operation that is decided after certain controls and examinations. If the person meets certain conditions, he can undergo this operation. Type 2 diabetes surgery is definitely not suitable for a patient with only a few kilograms excess. It is suitable for those with a body mass index, that is, the ratio of height to weight is greater than 39. First of all, general health status and other diseases, if any, should be considered. All signs of health status such as drugs used, allergies and chronic diseases should be evaluated.

 

What are the Advantages of Type 2 Diabetes Surgery?

 

Gastric reduction surgery is extremely important and advantageous especially for patients who cannot lose weight with diet and whose type 2 diabetes cannot be cured for a long time. It is a weight loss method for individuals who have trouble getting satiated due to their large stomach volume and who are not psychologically suitable for dieting. It is a surgical treatment that facilitates the life of individuals who have difficulty in moving due to high weight and fat ratio and have a reduced quality of life. Many diseases such as metabolic syndrome, obesity and diabetes can be cured in a short time. The right type 2 diabetes surgery applied at the right time allows patients to say hello to a new life.

 

How to Eat After Type 2 Diabetes Surgery?

 

Nutrition after type 2 diabetes surgery is a very important issue. In order for patients to regain their health and ideal digestive system, they should be fed in accordance with their changing stomach structures. Individuals who have undergone stomach reduction surgery cannot digest solid foods after surgery. The part where the stomach and small intestine meet needs to be healed. In the first weeks, they should be fed with liquid and pureed foods. While consuming foods high in protein in terms of nutrient content, foods containing bitter, spice and high fat should be excluded from the diet plan. Support can be obtained from enteral products that will not disturb the stomach. However, grainy foods and foods containing dense fiber can harm the stomach of the person. The nutrition plan and diet should be planned by the dietitian in the bariatric surgery team. Following the doctor and dietitian, a diet can be opened and new food trials can be started. Thus, while losing a healthy weight in a short time, the digestive system is protected. If you want to get rid of type 2 diabetes and excess weight, you can consider type 2 diabetes surgery under expert control.
