SLEEVE vs BYPASS vs GHRELIN



After 'gastric bypass' fasting ghrelin (appetite stimulating hormone) is normal. But there is enhanced ghrelin suppression after food intake.
After 'sleeve gastrectomy' fasting ghrelin is four fold reduced. There is post-prandial ghrelin suppression but less than after gastric bypass.
