A renowned bariatric surgeon Dr. Arush Sabharwal who has also been awarded by His Holiness Shri Dalai Lama for his contribution in field of obesity surgery states that “being overweight is a reversible condition which can be resolved by medical or surgical management. Losing weight can tremendously boost a person’s confidence; it increases the quality of life by eliminating most of the co morbidities. Since components that constitutes to the body weight are muscles, bones, water and fat; the target should only be to lose fat and excess water weight and not muscle or bone mass. ”

Nutritionist Kanak Agarwal says that “with growing rate of obesity bariatric surgery is a boon rather than a bane, most of the fad diets such as keto diet or intermittent fasting might give you weight loss at first but can be a reason for many other issues such as gall stones, lower metabolism, black outs if not followed under professionals instructions whereas, bariatric surgery is a definitive way to shed those extra kilos.”
