Best Answer

Individuals who are considering gastric band surgery for weight loss now have a fairly new option known as the Realize Band. Made of an extremely strong and flexible silicone, the Realize Band is designed to be wrapped completely around the upper part of the stomach, which creates a small pouch and a narrow passageway into the lower stomach. Because the passage into the lower stomach is so narrow, it delays the emptying of food from the pouch and causes the patient to feel full longer. This results in less overall calories consumed, thereby aiding in weight loss.
