I bet you’ve wondered this too. Olga posted, "Would you please make an episode on how to deal with the common cold after gastric bypass? What cold medications are allowed, what to avoid? Is it ok to get Theraflu?"


Bariatric dietitians Gayle Smith and Isabel Maples join me to answer your questions.


Hi, I’m registered dietitian nutritionist Dr. Susan Mitchell. You’re listening to the Bariatric Surgery Success podcast episode number 67. Most of my career I’ve worked in some type of media, particularly radio where I did morning drive nutrition spots for over 18 years. That’s what lead me to start podcasting and ultimately to you. I created Bariatric Surgery Success to provide you with life-changing information based on science along with simple strategies and tools to help you be successful in your transformation and your entire journey. So happy you’ve connected with me. You’re in the right place and I’m glad you’re listening.
