The Link Between Obesity And Vitamin D in Bariatric Patients With Omega-loop Bypass Surgery

Summary

The aim of the study is to increase vitamin D concentrations or to keep it on high level, respectively, by supplementing with vitamin D3 in a different dose regime, and to improve the overall health status in bariatric patients. In this project, the vitamin D status, the parameters of inflammation, bone turnover, insulin resistance, liver and depression score of bariatric patients are expected to improve, due to supplementation of a loading dose compared to the standard therapy.
