Summary

Bariatric surgery improves health outcomes with a maximal weight loss on average occurring 1 year after surgery but with dramatic between-subjects variability in weight loss (ranging from 20 to 160% excess weight loss) for reasons that remain to be elucidated.

The investigators hypothesize that targeting the 3 months pre-surgery period by a calibrated dietary intervention, with fiber enrichment and biotin, will improve gut microbiota richness and subsequently improve subjects' metabolic health that may optimize post bariatric surgery outcomes.

The study is designed as a pilot, comparative, randomized, open-label trial with 4 arms: standard of care, biotin only, fibers only, biotin + fibers.
