Vegan Diet After Weight Loss Surgery: Can You Do It? | Dr. Garth Davis
Many patients who have had weight loss surgery can still healthfully eat a plant-based diet.
Dr. Garth Davis, a bariatric surgery specialist from Houston Methodist, joins “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll with insight on how a plant-based diet and lifestyle chance can increase the chances of patients maintaining dramatic weight loss long term.
Chuck has used the surgery in conjunction with a healthier diet and lifestyle to maintain a nearly 300-pound weight loss for well over 10 years.
Topics Discussed
- Protein after weight loss surgery
- Fiber, gas, and bloating
- Nutrient absorption and supplements
- Obtaining nutrients from food with less emphasis on supplements
- What supplements WLS patients may still need
- Cognitive behavioral therapy for long-term success
- Is abstinence necessary from ultraprocessed and junk food?
- And more!
