Abstract
Patients who have undergone bariatric surgery are at increased risk of developing nutritional deficiencies.
- Micronutrient deficiencies are commonly observed after bariatric surgery due to limited food intake and nutrient absorption.
- Nutritional supplementation is often necessary to prevent or treat these deficiencies resulting from surgical changes.
- The effectiveness of oral nutritional supplementation in correcting deficiencies may depend on various factors.
- Understanding nutrient administration is crucial for clinical practice in managing post-bariatric surgery patients.
