After Surgery Vitamins



Recommended Posts

I was told ...

70-90 grams of Protein (men) a day

3x500 calcium citrate a day

B12 once a week

Multivitamin daily

Is everybody the same ?

i wasnt given anything specific to take. i just take a liquid vitamin... and some barley green powder. that seems to be enough but im goign to get some B12 and start injecting it to myself again. i want to get my vit D levels checked as well. Our state doesnt get that much sun... and most of the people who live here are deficient.

I bought chewable Multivitamins, I bought the ones for kids because they had the same stuff in them and were $3 dollars cheaper than the 'adult' ones. So it looks like I have fun animal shapes for the next couple of months. ;)

How long do I have to keep grinding up my pills? Forever? I know Vitamin pills are big but what about asprin or other pain killers?

I was told anything smaller than the pinky fingernail was okay to swallow. Was also told to only take tylenol from now on.

sakura?? you take barley green as well?? i think you are the first person ive come across on here that does use it. do you use very cold Water to mix it in? and drink?? i find it a lot more palatable if its very cold. also... i like the liquid Vitamins.. they are very easy to digest. i also take a med for hypertension... so i crush it up in my morning cup of coffee... and it goes down well. i dont take any painkillers at all. not too bad for a 66 year old with arthritis... lol.. dont you think?... lol.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
