Our Service of Bariatric Nutrition
Bariatric nutrition provides specialized dietary guidance for individuals considering or recovering from weight loss (bariatric) surgery. Proper nutrition is essential before and after procedures such as gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, or gastric banding to ensure optimal outcomes, prevent complications, and maintain long-term health.
Our pre-surgical nutrition counseling prepares your body for surgery, optimizes nutritional status, and establishes healthy eating patterns. Post-surgery, we guide you through the progressive diet stages—from clear liquids to pureed foods, soft foods, and finally, regular healthy eating—while ensuring adequate protein, vitamin, and mineral intake.
Bariatric patients have unique nutritional needs including lifelong vitamin supplementation and careful attention to protein intake, hydration, and eating behaviors. Our specialized nutritionists provide ongoing support to help you navigate challenges, prevent nutrient deficiencies, and achieve sustainable weight loss success. Book a consultation to begin your bariatric journey with expert guidance.
Book NowPre-surgery nutrition helps reduce liver size (making surgery safer and easier), optimizes nutritional status to support healing, establishes healthy eating habits before the procedure, and can lead to some pre-surgery weight loss that improves surgical outcomes. Many insurance providers also require documented nutrition counseling before approving surgery.
