Stomach balloon - a non surgical method of weight loss

December 19, 2005

Stomach balloon, a new non surgical method of weight loss is on its way. A group of Canadian doctors are experimenting with a non-surgical method of weight loss that will help to make the stomach take in less food. The method is totally different from the gastric bypass surgery. Unlike making the stomach small it’ll fill the stomach with a balloon.

In today’s time, the only surgical option available for weight loss is gastric bypass surgery, in which the stomach is cut to make it smaller or bands applied to temporarily decrease its size. Doctors are hoping that the balloon method will be a faster, less invasive option which will provide immense benefits for people suffering from obesity.
