Indian Obesity Pandemic Right Now – Gastric Banding is NOT the Answer!


Half of the Indian population is under the age of 25 and the new middle class see it as ‘cool’ to hang out and eat ‘fast westernised food’. Obesity is upon this massive nation!

50 million Diabetics at present and due to double in the next generation.

Four Corners this week looks at this disaster in the making. It specifically looks at the easy way out of Bariatric Surgery – Gastric sleeves and bands. This just does not work. It is not the answer.

Take the link to my blog on Bariatric Surgery. What a disaster!
