Food Preferences and Their Perceived Changes Before and After Bariatric Surgery: a Cross-sectional Study

摘要

Purpose Changes in food preferences, taste, and smell following bariatric surgery have been previously described but with inconsistent results. We aimed to describe current food preferences and their perceived changes before and after the surgery. We further compared food preferences between patients with and without taste or smell alterations, before and above 2 years follow-up, and concerning the success or failure of their surgery.
