Trial Backs Metabolic Surgery as Long-Term Diabetes Cure

I recently read the article, published in one of the reputable medical journals and would like to share GREAT news for those of you, who are struggling with DIABETES,- there may be a CURE for it in Metabolic Bariatric Surgery!

We, bariatric surgeons at Advanced Laparoscopic Surgeons of Morris, have known about the curative potential of Roux-En-Y gastric bypass and recently , Sleeve gastrectomy, for many years. We have been advocating these surgeries for 2 decades, and sometimes arguing with medical doctors, endocrinologist about their potential and asking for the patients to be recommended for surgery.
And now, with 10 year trial completed, showing that 38 % of patient with Diabetes, some on Insulin, had remission at 10 years(!), after metabolic bariatric surgery, vs. NONE on medical therapy, I am hopeful that medical community will embrace the SCIENCE behind Gastric Bypass, Sleeve Gastrectomy and for the sake of their patients start referring more of them for definitive surgical intervention.

The findings “provide the most robust scientific evidence yet that full-blown type 2 diabetes is a curable disease, not inevitably progressive and irreversible. In addition to representing a major advance in the treatment of diabetes, metabolic surgery is our best lead to the elusive cause of the disease .
