Propositions – Edit Somogyi
1. Ileal transposition leads to transient weight loss, with reduced food intake as the most important contributor to this effect (this thesis).
2. A moderately elevated protein diet is most optimal to promote weight loss in subjects undergoing ileal transposition because it does not reduce lean body mass (this thesis).
3. Ileal transposition leads to increased thermogenesis on a moderately elevated protein diet contributing to prevent weight regain (this thesis).
4. The height of post-ingestive PYY levels after ileal transposition is a good indicator for weight regain (this thesis).
5. The postoperative diet is an important determinant to achieve optimal outcome, both for recovery from surgery and weight loss (this thesis).
6. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is superior to ileal transposition regarding long term weight loss due to prolonged negative energy efficiency (this thesis).
7. Ileal transposition is an ideal method to study hindgut effects of nutrient loading (this thesis). 8. If we could give every individual the right amount of nourishment and exercise, not too little and not too much, we would have found the safest way to health (Hippocrates).
9. Research means going into the unknown. If you know what you are going to do in science, then you are stupid! (Albert Szent-Gyorgyi).
10. Perhaps the laws of nature have actually evolved along with nature itself, and perhaps they are still evolving. Or perhaps they are not laws at all, but more like habits (Rupert Sheldrake).
