Human beings love their sweets. Sweets are an integral part of every festival and celebration. Sweets are the expression of friendship and love. Sweets are the epitome of goodness in our society and the glue to our relationships. Sweets are intrinsic to our way of life. However, refined sugar is an empty calorie food with no nutritional value. Today, elevated sugar content is one of the main contributors to the growing epidemic of weight gain and obesity. As healthcare professionals dealing with management of obesity, one of our biggest challenges is getting our patients to cut down on their sugar intake. One of the reasons for this is unavailability of healthier alternatives. This book is an effort towards creating a resource that provides alternatives for healthy sweet options which will help patients to satisfy their sweet cravings. The recipes in this book have been contributed by nutritionists and healthcare professionals from across the world. The macronutrient calculation for every recipe is listed to educate patients about the nutritional content.

This book covers the management of various metabolic, nutritional and hormonal complications that arise after bariatric surgery. Until now bariatric surgeons have focused on mastering the surgical technique and reducing surgical complications. A number of metabolic and nutritional complications in the post-surgical phase can remain undiagnosed or unreported with a potential for irreversible morbidity. The book is edited by a team of experienced surgeons and bariatric nutritionists to provide a balanced perspective on the subject. It includes chapters on the prevention and subsequent diagnosis and management of these complications early in the course and explaining each complication with one or more suitable case reports. This book is relevant for practicing as well as aspiring bariatric surgeons, nutritionists/dieticians and bariatric physicians.

The narrative is gradually turning negative-a dismal reality for both doctors and patients. We tend to forget that there are many great things happening in the medical world. Today, we are living much longer, we have managed to eradicate many diseases, we have vaccines that prevent our children from dying, life-saving...
