Obesity is a fat problem in Kenya. But as many of us know, losing weight is no mean feat. It comes at a cost; often laborious tasks like sweaty morning runs and intermittent fasts. Enter bariatric surgery, the answer to the weighty matter.
Bariatric surgery is a procedure done on the digestive system to help a person with obesity lose weight. Bariatric surgery is an option for people who have a body mass index (BMI) above 40 or where excess weight poses health risks like type 2 diabetes and heart disease.
