  1. intestinal bypass

    Intestinal bypass, also known as gastric bypass, is a surgical procedure that alters the digestive system by connecting the stomach to the lower part of the small intestine, bypassing a section of the larger part of the small intestine. This surgery is often used as a treatment for obesity as it restricts food intake and reduces the absorption of nutrients, leading to weight loss. It may also be used to treat certain other digestive disorders or conditions.
