June 2024 in “PubMed” This study on 63 post-bariatric surgery patients found significant weight loss, with mean weight dropping from 129.5 kg/m² to 85.0 kg/m², and a 55% decline in clinically severe obesity. However, common complications included hair loss (50.8%), GERD (49.2%), and vomiting (41.3%). Nutrient deficiencies were noted, particularly in protein, fat, calcium, and iron intake.
