Abstract

Obesity is a highly prevalent entity in the world, currently representing a public healthcare problem. In the pathogenesis of this disease, a role of the intestinal micro biome has been identified. Human maintains a symbiotic relationship with enteric bacteria which are responsible for catalyzing processes that influence the immune response, gastrointestinal tract functioning and absorption of nutrients. A disbiosis can promote the development of obesity. When comparing the different therapeutic strategies for obesity, bariatric surgery allows better control of comorbidities while also showing a change in enteral bacterial populations. The objective of this text is, through a critical literary review, to capture the importance of the intestinal micro biome and its behavior in obesity and the role of bariatric surgery in its changes.
