Does the availability of high calorie low cost foods impact the obesity problem or not?

Very much so. There is a reason that the poor are disproportionately obese. Please see the related links I've added for more information. Many people believe that calorie dense foods are associated with obesity, but there are many low-cost high-calorie foods that are not calorie dense such as rice, pasta, and even whole milk. Such foods are not associate with obesity. Latest understanding is that poor people have a higher incidence of obesity because many of them experience food insecurity and have to deal with periods of scarce food supply. When such people can purchase enough food, say at the beginning of the month, they tend to overeat in reaction to the period of scarcity. This is very similar to the cause of yo-yo dieting behavior. To the extent that low-cost high-calorie food reduce food insecurity by making food more affordable, such foods should actually reduce obesity.

How do you search the best gastric bypass surgery facility in India?

Weight loss surgery-like gastric bypass /lap band surgery / stomach stapling and gastrectomy have become very common and very safe now. My cousin got her Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery in India. She has lost more than 65 lbs in 5 months and is very happy with the results. The price for obesity surgery is very less in India. My cousin just paid 25% of the cost she was quoted in America. She got her surgery from a company called Forerunners Healthcare. Forerunners Healthcare is very famous in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and magazines. I have read a lot of their patient stories also. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low cost, as bariatric surgery and weight loss surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that your Obesity surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star. Your surgeon's skill can make all the difference between a good and an average result. Thus, although it is understandable that price is one of the considerations in your choice of surgeon, it is important to remember that the main consideration should be your surgeon's professional qualifications and experience.
