i am looking for The most bang for my buck in a chewable Vitamin..any suggestions?

Online at swansons Vitamins or even at costco.

There are a lot of opinions out there and everyone is different. I opted for high quality along with value since this is my health we are talking about!

For the general Vitamin my doctor said Flintstones chewable with choline. Make sure to get 1 that contain choline because not all types do. I buy the store brand from costco and my bloodwork has been fine. I also Caltrate chewable Plus which is Calcium Plus D. Being a lady of a certain age I also take a dedicated Iron. 1 thing to be careful of is not to take Calcium with Iron at the same time because Iron prevents the body from absorbing calcium.

Because I have always had bad Vitamin D levels I also take a chewable Vitamin D. To help with regularity I also take vitafusion chewable Fiber. I do take a bite chew swallow and then take a second bite of the Fiber Gummy. I've never had a problem getting stuck.

Since my doctor had recommended Flint stone Vitamins I've never really seen the need to search out more expensive bariatric Vitamins. After all we are supposed to be eating like thin people and most of them buy vitamins at the store they don't go looking for some expensive brand you can only buy on the internet. And that's from someone who does a lot of shopping on the internet.

Obese people are deficient in nutrients and Vitamins usually. Unlike skinny people, when we are losing a lot of weight we need to make sure we are getting what we need. Blood work ups give a good clue of what we are deficient in. My online vitamins are not bariatric but high quality and pretty stinking cheap.

One flinstone chewable with Choline (costco brand). Before I lost weight I actually had my bloodwork done and I was VERY malnurished. I may have been eating a lot but my food choices were all highly processes and not at all nutritious.
