Understanding the Link Between Obesity and High Cholesterol
Excess body weight puts stress on nearly every system in the body, and high cholesterol is one of the most common consequences of long-term obesity. Studies show that losing weight through bariatric surgery can help reverse or manage this condition more effectively than traditional diet and medication alone.
How Bariatric Surgery Helps
Bariatric procedures such as gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, and robotic surgery reduce stomach size and impact hunger-regulating hormones, leading to sustained weight loss. For patients suffering from high cholesterol, this weight loss translates into reduced symptoms, fewer medications, and a better quality of life.
