The goal of this clinical trial is to characterize gastrointestinal digestion and physiology in patients after bariatric surgery, or people living with obesity. The main question it aims to answer is: what is the status of gastrointestinal digestion and physiology after bariatric surgery? Participants will have two study visits: 1) participants will undergo collection of gastrointestinal samples and 2) participants will ingest an ingestible capsule that measures multiple physiological parameters along the gastrointestinal tract.
⁃ Participants eligible for inclusion in this Investigation have to meet all of the following criteria:
• Voluntary written informed consent of the participant has been obtained prior to any screening procedures
• Age: 18-65 years
• Patients with obesity:
