Mercola article on WLS

I must warn you, Dr. Mercola really puts his foot in his mouth in this article. He's correct about what he says about RNY and especially the band, but he makes blanket statements about all weight loss surgeries that are just plain irgnorant.

All the more reason for pre-ops to do their own homework, and to avoid articles that are more interested in shock value to attract attention than reporting factual information in context. It alarms me how many people think that articles are a good source for research, nearly all of the ones I've read stink on ice.

 Mercola's a quack and a tool.
