Bariatric Surgery, Mexico, and Healthcare Connects

During this time of social distancing and self-quarantining, it is the perfect time to start educating yourself about bariatric surgery, Mexico, and how the two fit can together in a harmonious way to save you time and money… If you’re interested in such things, of course.

A Quick About Us:

Healthcare Connects is a medical tourism company based in Simcoe, Ontario. We are made up of a husband and wife team with a history of working alongside private bariatric clinics in Canada. We’ve taken it upon ourselves to become a full service resource exclusively for bariatric procedures in Mexico.

How We Are Adjusting to COVID-19

During the current worldwide crisis involving COVID-19, most international travel has been shut down, or severely limited.

This is certainly troubling news given that our services require flying our clients to Mexico to have their bariatric procedures as well as providing return flights.

Let us look instead to the bright side, and use the down time to teach and learn more about what’s involved in our bariatric surgery abroad services.

We can also learn how we came to be a company that is changing lives for the better, all across Canada.

Why Bariatric Surgery?

If you’re new to researching the topic of bariatric surgery, you’re not alone. For many people who are medically categorized as obese, bariatric surgery is often the last hope when diets and lifestyle changes have been ineffective.

Bariatric surgery is a type/group of procedures who’s ultimate goal is to reduce the size of the stomach and reduce the production of hunger hormones. There are several approaches to bariatrics, including stomach bands, gastric bypass, gastric sleeve, and others (explained later), the most common procedure performed is: Gastric bypass.

What is Gastric Bypass (Short & Sweet)?:

Since there is an overwhelming amount of information available for gastric bypass surgery online, let’s summarize:

• Also known as “Roux-en-Y”
• Laparoscopic procedure (You are not cut open)
• Creates a small pouch, to mimic a smaller stomach
• Essentially a shortcut to the small intestine
• You feel fuller much sooner
• As a result, you eat less!

What is Gastric Sleeve (Short & Sweet)?:

You could say that the gastric sleeve is similar to gastric bypass. Both involve reducing the ‘size’ of the stomach to reduce the volume of food it takes to feel full… Here’s the bullet points:

• Laparoscopic procedure (Not cutting you open!)
• Large portion of stomach is removed
• Remaining stomach shape akin to a banana
• You feel satisfied with much lower amounts of food
• The hunger hormone ‘Ghrelin’ is reduced too

What is Mini Gastric Bypass (Short and Sweet!)?:

With mini gastric bypass surgery, you’ll see why these are all categorized together under the banner of bariatrics…

• Laparoscopic procedure
• Updated or modified version of gastric bypass
• Stomach is divided into a 1/4 and 3/4 sections
• The smaller portion is then connected to the small intestine
• Feel fuller sooner
• Suppress excess hunger

While We’re Stuck at Home…

Who is Eligible for Bariatric Surgery?

Now that we’re more familiar with each type of procedure that falls under the bariatric surgery family, what’s next? Can anyone just sign up for the procedure and wait their turn?

No. Of course not!

As with just about any medical procedure, there are requirements and prerequisites.

In order to not deluge you for information, here’s the generalized requirements for bariatric surgeries through Healthcare Connects:

• Must be at least 18 years old
• BMI of at least 35. Or BMI of 30 with associated weight related health issues
• Able to commit to lifestyle changes
• Have valid passport

These are the foundational requirements. Of course there are other factors that will be addressed as you fill out an intake form.

We’ve learned about the WHAT, HOW, and the WHO… What about the WHEN and WHERE?

Great question:

Why Travel to Mexico for Bariatric Surgery?

Doesn’t Canada Provides Bariatric Surgery Procedures?

The Canadian Healthcare system certainly provides bariatric surgeries. The problem is that it isn’t just an issue of do-they, or don’t-they. It is a supply and demand issue.

Each province’s healthcare system is overtaxed to the point that demand/need for bariatric procedures far outweighs the available supply of surgeons and operating rooms.

Check out these statistics on bariatric surgery waiting times across Canada:

The wait times create an incredible backlog of people who already qualified for bariatric procedures… They unfortunately just cannot get into the operating room soon enough. Sometimes the delay can be fatal.

Enter Medical Tourism to Mexico

Many people are hesitant at first about travelling to Mexico for any sort of healthcare service. This boils down to a misunderstanding, or simply a lack of up-to-date information.

Over the last 20 years, Mexico has advanced leaps and bounds in terms of their medical training, technology, and facilities.

Knowing that surgical conditions in Mexico are on-par (if not better) than Canada’s is a surprising revelation. Many years ago when we first entered the field of bariatrics, we were amazed ourselves.

Benefits of Bariatric Surgery in Mexico: Price

Now that the quality of care hesitations have been addressed, it is time to focus on the more advantageous benefits of weight-loss surgeries in Mexico. Let’s boil it down:

• Cost – Private clinics in Canada charge $15,000-$20,000
• Cost – Mexico via HCC roughly $7000-$10,000

That is a significant savings, not to mention, with Healthcare Connects, your flights and travel accommodations are included. Substantial!

Benefits of Bariatric Surgery in Mexico: Low Wait Times

The above chart that shows the supply and demand of bariatrics in Canada paints a disturbing picture of wait times measured in years. How can a lifesaving surgery allow for multiple year-long waiting lists? It does, but it certainly shouldn’t:

• Wait Time: Canadian average: 5 years (source: NIH.GOV)
• Wait Time: Mexico via HCC: 2-4 weeks.

Benefits of Bariatric Surgery in Mexico: No Stress, No Worries

As the vision of bariatric surgery in Mexico becomes clearer, it is important to touch on one more benefit. With Healthcare Connects, we take care of all travel details, hotel lodgings, and everything else required to make it ‘there and back again’ safe and sound.

We love to say that what we offer is WORRY FREE and STRESS FREE. We definitely don’t mean to diminish the internal feelings you might have about your medical condition. We’re merely describing the process of getting to Mexico and back again, and having all aspects of the journey taken care of as part of our service to you.

The True Joys of What We Do

The true joy of what we do can be summed up pretty easily.

We’re helping people get the surgery they need, at an affordable price, with next-to-no waiting time (comparatively!), while we take care of all the details.

Canadian Ginseng & the All Important Ginsenosides

We are here to learn about Ginseng, what is it? What are the benefits? How is it grown? I like learning about new things that I did know about before. Especially when it is a healthy alternative in a world today that is filled with bad things that aren’t good for your health!

Let us look at this Ginseng more closely… In fact, let’s get to the ‘root’ of it. Ginseng is the root of the plants that are in the Genus Panax. These are usually characterized by the presence of the potent substances gintonin and ginsenosides.

Examples of the Ginseng root are:

• South China ginseng
• Korean ginseng
• American ginseng

I know that Ginseng has been used in medicine for many centuries but amazingly, modern medicine has not yet confirmed anything conclusive about its effects… Modern medicine moves at the speed of politicians after all. Slow, lumbering, with an excess of bureaucracy.

Origins of the Word Ginseng:

The word Ginseng, has Chinese origination and is born from the Hokkien Chinese jin-sim. The characters in the Chinese word stands for person and plant root. This is also because the root has a fork shape that is similar to the legs of a person. I totally see it now:

Let us look at how it is grown and farmed.

Cultivation and Farming of Ginseng

The plant is a perennial that grows from a seed that is planted in the fall. Every autumn, the stem and the leaves will fall off the plant.

During the month of May, one shoot will emerge and this is a cycle that will continue until the root is harvested. When the Ginseng is grown in a field cultivation, the root will be harvested about 3 to 5 years after it was seeded.

Seems a long time to wait, but it’s totally worth it in the end.

When the ginseng plant is small, it can easily be confused with a small poison ivy plant. It has a single leaf that has a three small leaflets at the stem that is about 15-25cm tall.

Some have deemed ginseng to be a cash crop which essentially means it’s a good plant to decide to grown, if you have sufficient start up capital, and the resources to manage the impending workload.

As the years pass by, it will start to grow with more leaves on the plant and each year the leaves increase up until the fourth year.

After the fourth year, the stem will get thicker and the height can reach to approximately 45-60cm. However when it is cultivated it can be taller due to natural variation and soil conditions.

We see how it grows which is interesting so far, so let us now look at some benefits of Ginseng.

Benefits of the Amazing Root Plant: Ginseng

For many years Ginseng has been linked to aiding in a range of medical conditions. Although, it has not been scientifically proven, it is believed that the chemical component contained is responsible for the effects of the herb.

With any product containing Ginseng, it is noted that the amount may vary and this will affect the properties of the product. It is best that you check the ingredients before you purchase or consume. That is, you do not want to buy a product that has a negligible amount of Ginseng and possibly combined with other substances. This may alter the potency which may not be a good thing.

Inspiration for this summary via Healthline’s website:
https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/ginseng-benefits

Increased Energy

Ginseng is believed to help to stimulate mental and physical activity in people who are tired and weak. Some of the studies done were inconclusive on the effects but it cannot be disputed that some improvements were seen.

Cognitive Functions

It is also believed that Ginseng will improve the cognitive processes. It was observed in some persons that their cognition and behaviors benefitted from the consumption of Ginseng.

Anti-Inflammatory Effects

The Ginsenosides contained in Ginseng seems to have anti-inflammatory properties that reduce inflammation. It is believed to go in the pathways in the immune system that will reduce tenderness in the body.

Erectile Dysfunction

There are some men who consume Ginseng to treat their erectile dysfunction problems. In 2002, there was a Korean study that showed up to 60% of men reported improvement in their symptoms after taking Ginseng.

Flu Prevention

There is some evidence to show that the consumption of Ginseng aids in the treatment and prevention of influenza and respiratory illnesses.

Lowering Blood Sugar

It was also seen that Ginseng has some lowering effects on the blood sugar and the treatment of diabetes. The components will help the insulin production in the pancreas and help in the insulin resistance with other mechanisms.

These were some interesting benefits which seem to have some merit to it right? It is always good to see how something has helped others as it can possibly be beneficial to us as well.
Now, we will explore some uses of Ginseng.

Uses of Ginseng

You may have seen Ginseng in juices before but personally I did not pay attention to it. I have now discovered that it can be included in herbal teas and energy drinks! Interesting! It can also be consumed in small amounts to aid as a dietary supplement. This can help for persons who face issues with their weight.

Culinary Uses

You will mostly find the Ginseng root in a dried form either sliced or whole. There is a Ginseng leaf that can also be used but this is not highly sought after. It is used in Korean cuisine and will be found in many side dishes and soups, hmm this should be tasty! You can also find Ginseng in tea and alcoholic beverages which can probably get you drunk and heal you at the same time!

Medicinal

Ginseng has been used for many years in traditional medicine. There has been initial research that while not conclusive, has shown some positive effects on fatigue, memory, menopause and diabetes. The jury is still out on the definitive health benefits but it is still believed that it has some healing properties.

Now, here is another interesting fact, although the root is mostly used, the leaves and the stems have more phytochemicals than the root. Also they are easier to harvest. You will also find ginsenosides also known as saponins. They again have not studied the compounds in detail to investigate the properties so many things are still unknown about Ginseng.

Review

Here is a glimpse into an experience from a local ginseng customer:

“I have suffered with ED for some time now and I started taking Ginseng for about 5 days and I started to see some positive effects. In the morning I felt like a young man again so I know that I was still functional in that area. The ED problem was huge for my girlfriend but after having a light course of Ginseng I have had no problem doing what I needed to do. This was a definite difference and I am pleased. One thing though, It made me have some cravings for red meat and made me feel invincible. So one warning, take it sparingly and don’t overdo it!”

You’re either ready to make your first move or mom and dad have finally said it’s time to move out and get your first home and mortgage:

Being the forward thinker that you are, you want to make sure you’ve got your facts straight and know how to approach moving into your first home, and the different ways you can get your first mortgage.

What Do you Already Know?

You may already be somewhat aware of mortgages and home financing, or maybe you aren’t! Let us know what your level of knowledge Is below, and we’ll be able to more accurately help you.

Perhaps you have only encountered people who are apartment or condo renters, so the conversation about actual home ownership has yet to come up. Again, with the Romano Mortgage Group in Hamilton, Ontario, it doesn’t matter what your previous knowledge level is.

We’ll help fill the knowledge gap with valuable information to help you make informed decisions about your mortgage, your finances in general, and how to take the next steps in life.

First, Learn About the Romano Group (The Brief Version)

Phil Romano started the Romano Mortgage Group as part of his services to Hamilton as a certified mortgage broker and private lender. The group works under the Verico House of Mortgage Experts who serve the Hamilton and Halton Regions of Southern Ontario.

Since the 1980’s Phil and his team have been helping new homeowners kick start their careers as mortgage holders, and have directed many successful young people and couples to get their first mortgage.

That’s over 30 years of experience. This unbeatable history of helping Hamilton, Ancaster, Stoney Creek and Burlington residents fly the coop and set out on their own is undeniable proof that the Romano Group knows what’s best for your future, and has your true best interest at heart as they get you the best interest rates for your first mortgage.

The Bullet Points of your First Mortgage

Keep the following bullet points in mind, as they can be crucial elements of how your money is allocated over the coming years. Let’s seek to fully optimize – dollar for dollar – To get the most out of every pay check:

• Interest Rate: Interest rates are key to determining payment amount, and how much it’ll cost you to borrow money for your first home in Hamilton.
• Term: The duration in which your new mortgage will be in effect. Generally you’ll keep the interest rate for this period, and you can be assured payments will be unchanged for the ‘term’ of the mortgage
• Amortization: Amortization is the approximate time it would take to pay down the mortgage if the ‘term’ components were to stay the same. Keep in mind, that with each term renewal, the amortization details are likely to change a bit due to updated mortgage principal balance (how much left to pay down), and any changes to interest rate.
• Payment Frequency: This is one seemingly trivial component of your mortgage that could make a lot of difference. If you pay bi-weekly versus monthly, you’ll find yourself paying down the ‘principal’ much faster.
• Principal: The principal amount on a mortgage is the total amount of money left owing. You’ll see this amount diminish as payments are made over time.
• Interest: Different from the interest rate, the actual interest is the portion that the broker or bank will collect as the cost of borrowing the money. By getting a lower interest rate, you’ll pay less interest, and therefore your money goes further.

Romano Mortgage Group’s Pledge

As much as we all wish that mortgages could be provided free of interest, and therefore free of charge, it simply doesn’t make economic sense.

Remember, someone else is loaning you the money you need to make a big purchase. They need to be compensated for lending out their own money. Be it a bank or private person or institution – There will almost always be interest to content with.

In the grand scheme of things, it’s what keeps the money flowing so that young couples and young individuals can make the first jump into living on their own.

Still, it sounds better than owing mom and dad, doesn’t it!

First Mortgage Summary Details

The key takeaways for your first mortgage are to make sure you’re planning on living in the home for at least five years. Also try your best to get the best interest rate you can.

Though you have to balance out the risks of variable rate mortgages versus fixed mortgages to see if your risk tolerance levels will allow for the potential volatility that can occur with interest rates in these ‘interesting’ economic times.

More importantly, talk to the Romano Mortgage Group in Hamilton, Ontario to secure the knowledge you need to be comfortable with this big life step. They’re here for you.

Now Offering Private Swimming Lessons in Toronto

Aim Above Swim School, based in Toronto, Ontario, is putting out for public consumption that they offer private swimming lessons for students of all ages and stages.

Whether you are a child beginner, or an adult beginner, you can find new footing in the water, as you seek to learn the lifesaving skill of swimming.

Why Learn to Swim with Private Swimming Lessons?

It can be surprisingly beneficial to partake in private swimming lessons, as the one on one approach of the swim instructor can adapt to meet your needs exactly. Whether you have limited experience, or consider yourself to be a novice swimmer, having a private swimming instructor enables you to focus on your problem areas only, and seek improvement where it is desired most.

Aim Above Swim School has found that while children who partake in private swimming lessons seek a more well rounded education of water based skills, adults who enter into one on one swim instruction are much more focused on specific skills. In fact, when polled for their particular wishes for areas of improvement in the water, most adults came up with the following answers:

• Increase swim endurance
• Survive in the deep end
• Learn proper form
• Swim under water

Adults who learn to swim in a one on one environment are able to recognize their initial limitations, and break free of their comfort zone as all of the attention is firmly on them from the swim instructor. This helps to ensure accountability towards the goals of the lesson.

Learning to Swim as an Adult is Okay

There’s a long standing misconception that paints learning to swim as an adult as a faux pas. This is something Aim Above Swim School has been working hard to fix. There’s no need to feel ashamed that you haven’t learned how to swim yet. Even in adulthood there’s plenty of compelling reasons why you may have not had to learn how to swim.

Your family may have just grown up in an area where a pool was not available, and it was a struggle to survive, hence going to the beach may not have been much of an option either.

The point is, that even as an adult, it is okay to put the breaks on and say ‘Now is the time, I am going to learn how to swim with private swimming lessons’.

Private Swimming Lessons Can Save Lives

Gathering poolside with an instructor all to yourself may seem like a perfect way to spend a morning or afternoon. Though, keep in mind that the goal is learning a life saving skill that can change lives. For every one person that partakes in adult swimming lessons, another goes without. That means there can still be an estimated 1 in 3 adults that are unprepared for the waters.

How does this number play out when we are talking about future families, and family events?

Well, without proper training and swimming education it is entirely possible that this would lead to even more people growing up being unable to enter the water.

If you think about it, if a father of 2 is unable to swim, it then translates to the children that there may be something to fear with the water. This shows you how avoiding learning to swim can have generational effects that limit the fun of the future, and pose a potential safety risk as well.

Being prepared to enter the water is a shrewd way to invest in yourself and your children’s future as well.

Toronto Swimming Lessons

In order to register for swim lessons with Aim Above Swim School, it is ideal to have access to a swimming pool. Whether it is your own private pool, a condo based pool, or a local community center pool, access is required. If you do not know of the whereabouts of a local facility, Aim Above will strive to find one nearest you to help.
