Comparison of deficiency prevalence
The comparison of micronutrient deficiency prevalence for bariatric patients after a Gastric Sleeve versus Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass patients.
Deficiencies during pregnancy occur in up to 70% of women, usually due to inadequate dietary intake and decreased absorption of nutrients (Snoek et al., 2022). During this webinar, we will discuss nutritional recommendations to reduce the risk of deficiencies in this patient group.

Iodine absorption after bariatric surgery Iodine absorption after bariatric surgery Iodine absorption is not affected by bariatric surgery Bariatric surgery is often accompanied by malnutrition of several vitamins, minerals and trace elements. Iodine is a trace element, needed for synthesis…
Heusschen et al. found a relatively high deficiency prevalence for Gastric Sleeve patients, regardless of which type of food supplement was used. Usage of WLS Optimum resulted in higher serum values for folic acid and vitamin B1, compared to patients…
Smelt et al. found higher mean serum concentrations of ferritin, folic acid, vitamin B1 and vitamin D and less deficiencies in vitamin B12, ferritin, folic acid and vitamin B1 in Gastric Sleeve patients using WLS Optimum 1.0, compared to patients…
This study examines the effect of the timing of pregnancy after bariatric surgery on neonatal complications, gestational weight and nutritional status.
The need for nutritional screening after a Gastric Sleeve was assessed through the long-term nutritional status of Gastric Sleeve patients over 5 years.
