Vitamin Mineral Deficiencies

Overview

Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy does not alter the normal gut anatomy, so there is no real risk of vitamin or mineral deficiency as seen in gastric bypasses. Vitamin D deficiency is commonly present in overweight patients and they are prescribed multivitamins for this. For patients who undergo Gastric Bypasses;  multivitamin, calcium and Vitamin D supplementation will be needed for life.
