What is The Optimal Nutritional Programme for Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery about?

## Purpose of review: Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for severe and complex obesity; however, the risk of developing nutrient deficiencies varies based upon the type of surgery, degree of malabsorption, and level of nutrition intervention. there are numerous factors that can impact the nutrition status of a patient during their pre- and postoperative journey. we review the critical components and considerations needed in order to provide optimal nutrition care for patients with bariatric surgery. ## Recent findings: A dietitian, specializing in bariatric surgery, is the best equipped healthcare provider to prepare and support patients in achieving and maintaining optimal nutrition status. we present best practices for both the pre- and postoperative nutrition-related phases of a patient's journey. the dietitian specialist is integral in the assessment and ongoing nutrition care of patients with bariatric surgery. further consideration should be given to enable access for lifelong follow-up and monitoring.
