Nutritional Deficiencies

Patients who have had bariatric surgery may have nutritional deficiencies. These include:

• Vitamin deficiencies
• Mineral deficiencies
• Macro nutrient deficiencies including protein, fats or carbohydrates
• Not eating enough or not absorbing enough of the right vitamins and minerals
• Caloric deficiencies

What are vitamin and mineral deficiencies?

If you are not absorbing enough vitamins or minerals, you may be low on the following:

• Fat soluble vitamins, including D, K, A and E
• Water soluble ones, including C and B (1- thiamin, 12 and folate)
• Minerals, including selenium, zinc, copper, and iron

Very low dietary intake of a vitamin or nutritionally essential mineral can result in deficiency disease, termed micronutrient deficiency. Micronutrient deficiencies, especially iron, vitamin A, zinc, iodine, and folate, are prevalent in the developing world, affecting an estimated 2 billion people worldwide.
