Detailed description

Patients will be randomized into 2 groups: * G1: Patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy as bariatric procedure and receiving pre- and postoperative probiotics * G2: Patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy as bariatric procedure and not receiving pre- or postoperative probiotics Preoperative probiotics scheme include: * saccharomyces boulardii ntc 5375 + enterococcus faecium UBEF-41 + lactobacillus acidophilus LA 14 during 15 days (between 6th and 4th weeks before surgery) * Bifidobacterium lactis BL 04 + Bifidobacterium breve BB 03 + Bifidobacterium bifidum BB 06 + Bifidobacterium longum BL 05 during 15 days (between 4th and 2nd weeks before surgery) * lactobacillus rhamnosus LR 32 + lactobacillus rhamnosus HN001 + lactobacillus acidophillus LA 14 during 15 days (between 2nd week and the day before surgery) Postoperative probiotics scheme include: * saccharomyces boulardii ntc 5375 + enterococcus faecium UBEF-41 + lactobacillus acidophilus LA 14 during 15 days (between 1st and 3rd weeks after surgery) * Lactobacillus rhamnosus LR 32 + Bifidobacterium lactis BL 04 + Bifidobacterium longum BL 05 + lactobacillus salivarius LS 33 + lactobacillus acidophilus LA 14 + bifidobacterium bifidum BGN 4 during 4 months (between 4th and 20th weeks after surgery.
