Nutritional deficiencies in morbidly obese patients: a new form of malnutrition? Part B: minerals

Orit Kaidar-Person et al. Obes Surg. 2008 Aug.

Even though in the Western world there is almost no limitation to a wide variety of food supply, nutritional deficiencies can be found in both normal-weight population and in the obese population. In this review, we examine the prevalence and manifestations of various mineral deficiencies in obese patients.
