Bypass Food vs Band Food??

[Jacquie Christie]

Can someone tell me, is there any difference in the food a bypasser can eat and the food a bander can eat in the long term?

I've been reading about slider foods a bit and wondering if this only effects banders or both?

Thanks

Hi Im a Bypasser and can eat anything not sure about banders

slider foods affect both bypassers and banders. Bypassers have to be careful of high sugar and fat content due to dumping syndrome.
The aim for both as I understand it is to keep food in your pouch, stomach for as long as possible, the dryer the food the longer it will stay in keeping you feel full for longer. As soon as there is a slider food or a drink is taken after food, it turns the food into mush and slides through your band or pouch.
Hope this helps x
