Gastric Bypass for Diabetic Obese Teens … Never Before Trying: ELHASHEMY'S COMBO
The surgery provided patients a number of benefits all related to losing weight: The patients came off all diabetic medications, returned to normal blood glucose and insulin levels and significantly improved their blood pressure and cholesterol. These benefits results from significant loss of weight by any means, whether using surgery or effective diets.
Gastric bypass will force obese teens to eat only tiny amounts of food. As a result, during the three years following operation, they usually lose a very significant amount of weight. But, there are major drawbacks, most important of which is a high risk of operative death. Also, doing major gastric surgery may cause mal absorption affecting growth of body tissues in teens.
As I previously said, gastric bypass will force obese teens to eat only a tiny amount of food. On the other hand, Elhashemy´s Luqaimat Stomach Satiety Combo produces the same effect with the same results without the dangers and complications of gastric bypass. It helps people to feel continuous satiety, and in addition it helps them to change their deep-rooted habits replacing eating large meals by micro-meals (Luqaimat).
In my clinical practice, I had 24 morbidly obese teens (age: 16 - 19 years and with BMI 38 plus) whom undergone gastric bypass, and lost average of 72 pounds within 12 months and then regained more than 50% of their lost weight after another 12 months. I advised them to follow my easy to perform combo (i.e. Luqaimat meals plus boosting Elhashemy´s Stomach Satiety Spot "ESSS"). They lost the regained weight within around 6 months and still keeping off their lost weight. This proves that Elhashemy´s combo is a more promising and much safer technique than gastric bypass surgery.
I have identified a virtual satiety spot at stomach fundus; stimulation of which may prevent gastric muscles relaxation; hence preventing accommodation of big meals. I gave it the name: Elhashemy's Stomach Satiety Spot "ESSS". My postulated "ESSS" stimulation leads to what we can name the silent stomach.
Starting June 2008, I added Luqaimat nuts to my broad spectrum scientific diet plan, as separate training item in the form of 3 nuts every 10 minutes repeated for 4 times or better for 7 times within one hour. I aim by this at stimulating "ESSS".
It is known that overweight subjects are less likely to report satiety than normal weight subjects when their stomachs were moderately full.
My postulated hypothesis is that mechanical stimulation of the vagus nerve afferents at stomach fundus, cause the stomach to produce peptides that send messages of "fullness". This message reaches the part of the brain known as the hippocampus. The hippocampus is linked to emotional behaviors, learning, and memories. Luqaimat meals are used in order to boost this pathway, hence the sense of fullness.
The human stomach has a "resting" internal volume of 75 milliliters, but when relaxing its muscular wall it can expand to an internal volume of two liters or more. This expansion is controlled by nerves inside the stomach wall which release molecules that stimulate certain receptors that are embedded in muscle cells. Similar to the heart, which beats an average of 70 times each minute at rest, the muscular walls of stomach gives off its own rhythmic impulses about 5 every minute.
On training stomach to be quiet through "ESSS" stimulation using peanuts or almonds, it will relax slowly, and so within few weeks it will accommodate the least amount of food volume which is named Luqaimat in the Arabic Language. "ESSS" stimulation plus Luqaimat meals are the main two components of the Elhashemy´s Combo, which I think is a better and much safer alternative to gastric bypass surgery for both teens and adults. For this reason, I advise health professionals to manage teens´ obesity using Elhashemy combo before subjecting them to the risky gastric bypass operation.
