If you are contemplating having a gastric bypass then a recent US study might just help you to make up your mind. The study looked at no fewer than 16,000 obese people and found that when people in the study group opted for gastric bypass surgery their long-term mortality rate dropped by as much as 40%. This should not really be a surprise since weight loss surgery also cures, or at least improves, a host of other conditions such as high blood pressure and diabetes and the change in diet and increase in exercise which follows surgery has got to be a good thing. Nevertheless, it is always nice to see what we already know put down in black and white as confirmation.
