About

In individuals diagnosed with obesity, the traditional treatment method involves changing and regulating dietary habits and increasing physical activity levels. When these measures prove insufficient, pharmacological interventions are used.

When exercise programs conducted after bariatric surgery are compared to weight loss achieved through surgery alone, it is believed that physical activity after bariatric surgery is an effective approach to improving metabolic health.

Gastric leptin level indicates the level of leptin hormone found in stomach tissue. Leptin is a hormone produced by adipose tissue in the body and plays a role in energy balance. It generally controls appetite by reducing feelings of hunger and helps regulate body weight by increasing energy expenditure.

This study aims to examine the relationship between gastric leptin levels, eating disorders, and physical activity after bariatric surgery.

Full description

n individuals diagnosed with obesity, the traditional treatment method involves changing and regulating dietary habits and increasing physical activity levels. When these measures prove insufficient, pharmacological interventions are used. However, in 90% of individuals diagnosed with obesity, these treatments have been found to be ineffective, failing to achieve the desired results. It has been reported that weight loss of 5-10% over a five-year period is difficult to achieve. When all these methods are evaluated, it has been reported that bariatric surgery has been a successful technique in improving the health of individuals diagnosed with obesity in recent years. When a technique combining different methods and approaches, such as calorie restriction, physical activity, and behavioral changes in individuals, is attempted, it has been reported that the weight gained in the long term is regained, and the individual is able to perform their physical abilities to a large extent. When exercise programs conducted after bariatric surgery are compared to weight loss achieved through surgery alone, it is believed that physical activity after bariatric surgery is an effective approach to improving metabolic health.

Gastric leptin level indicates the level of leptin hormone found in stomach tissue. Leptin is a hormone produced by adipose tissue in the body and plays a role in energy balance. It generally controls appetite by reducing feelings of hunger and helps regulate body weight by increasing energy expenditure.

This study aims to examine the relationship between gastric leptin levels, eating disorders, and physical activity after bariatric surgery.
