What Is Stomach Stapling

Stomach stapling also known as vertical banded gastroplasty has a very simple principle behind it. If you can’t control your mouth and seem to gobble up anything that you find, then why not restrict your stomach that it forces you not to eat anymore. Apparently, many people are so addicted to food that binding their stomach into less than half its original size is the only way to stop their love affair with food. Not only does the stomach take less food but even some of the food is bypassed directly to the small intestine. So, there is less absorption of calories and nutrients. This results in a gradual reduction of weight. This is a very viable option for many people whose obesity makes it difficult to perform their daily function. After this procedure, people start eating less and less and gradually their excessive craving for food also comes down. By the time their weight comes to the normal level they would also have controlled their addiction to a significant extent. Thus, after the stapling maintaining a proper diet becomes easier and coupled with exercise the weight can be kept at the normal level. To know more on stomach stapling read below.
