BMI Criteria For Obesity Surgery Should Be Lowered, UT Southwestern Researchers Suggest

Downright deadly advice. Happy New Year from the sick care and weight loss industries.

"The study findings show that some morbidly obese patients have better cardiovascular disease risk profiles than those who are less obese. In particular, the researchers found that cardiovascular risk factors can be much worse in many individuals with a BMI as low as 30 than they are for some surgical candidates with higher BMIs.

This suggests that some patients who are obese but not morbidly obese could benefit from bariatric surgery, which can help reduce cardiovascular disease, said Dr. Livingston."

Put them on diets that work instead of subjecting them to your malpractice diets and malpractice surgery and malpractice drugs.

This also suggests that fat person surgery done for potential cardiovascular disease is done needlessly as, 'Our results show that cardiovascular risk factors do not necessarily worsen with increasing obesity,' Dr. Livingston said."

Get rid of this industry.
