Question about gastric bypass

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
Here's my question:

If the Standard American Diet leads to increased risk of malnutrition and obesity, wouldn't someone with a gastric bypass be even MORE malnourished?

I agree with obesity, but why does the "standard American diet" lead to malnutrition?

My sister's sister in-law had gastric bypass done, and recall her mentioning that her sister in law is now required to take a multi-vitamin every day.

It also has a reasonably high chance of death, something like 1/20. It's a pretty damn serious surgery.
