EP 171 Is Alcohol after Bariatric Surgery Risky?

Wednesday, August 28, 2024 • Duration 11:30

Have you had alcohol since your surgery? Did you notice that you got tipsy from just a few sips? Were you thinking to yourself...hey, what’s going on here…I've only had a few sips and feel a buzz.

That’s because alcohol absorbs way faster after metabolic and bariatric surgery especially if you had gastric bypass or a gastric sleeve. Is alcohol risky? How much can you drink and how fast will you become intoxicated? If you drink alcohol after surgery or you have friends or family who’ve had surgery and drink alcohol, this is must-know info.
