Guest guest Posted April 4, 2001 Report Share Posted April 4, 2001 Thanks Anita, But do they still take out a large amount of the small intestines? I think its called DISTALLY placed. Or is this BPD higher for more absorbtion? I would prefer taking vitamins my whole life and not have to worry about absorbtion or weight gain ever again. Please explain this to me? Again THANK YOU!

It's because of that separate connection built so there's now two connections, one with the biliopancreatic fluids and one called the alimentary channel which is where you food goes through. They eventually meet up, mix and digest in the common channel. Hopefully I explained it well, if not, someone else will..*grins* Anita >> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
