description Background: In 2022, the Obesity Medicine Association (OMA) published a Clinical Practice Statement (CPS) which provided an overview of bariatric surgery and related procedures, a discussion on gastrointestinal hormones and a review of the microbiome as it relates to patients with obesity. This update to the 2022 OMA CPS provides a focus on nutrition as it relates to the adult bariatric surgery patient, incorporating a detailed discussion on how to conduct a bariatric nutrition assessment and manage patients seeking metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) and postoperative nutrition care. In particular, the section on macronutrients, micronutrients, and bariatric surgery has been updated, highlighting practical approaches to nutrient deficiencies typically encountered in the bariatric surgery patient. Also included is a section on how to envision and develop an interdisciplinary team of medical providers with evidence-based nutrition knowledge and consistent information that improves the quality of nutrition care provided to MBS patients. This CPS adds to the series of OMA CPSs meant to provide guidance to clinicians in their care of patients with obesity. Methods: The foundation of this paper is supported by scientific evidence in the medical literature and expert opinion derived from several bariatric nutrition resources, as well as from the 2022 OMA CPS focused on bariatric surgery. Results: This OMA Clinical Practice Statement provides an overview of the current bariatric nutrition clinical guidelines and nutrition tools adapted for clinicians who may not have access to an MBS team or a registered dietitian knowledgeable about bariatric nutrition. Conclusions: This evidence-based review of the literature includes an overview of current bariatric nutrition recommendations. It is intended to provide clinicians with more advanced knowledge and skills in nutrition assessment and management of the preoperative and post-surgical MBS patients. This CPS also addresses macronutrient and micronutrient deficiencies common in MBS patients, and treatment recommendations designed to help the clinician with clinical decision making.
