JDHenin 165 Posted July 18, 2012 Hi all, can anyone recommend a Gummy Vitamin that has Iron in it? As well as all the Vitamins you would find in a multi vitamin. Currently I take vita fusion , it has 200% Vitamin D which I need, but no iron or zinc. I was told my zinc was a little low in my pre op bloodwork. I'm trying to find that all in one!

EmyWemy 32 Posted July 18, 2012 I currently chew on 'Bariatric Fusion' Vitamins, and that has 7.5mg of Iron per tablet. It's not a Gummy, but chewable tablets that taste pretty all right to me. One tablet is chewed 3 times daily so I guess you would be getting 22.5mg of Iron. You can look at the nutrition here: supplements.html?gclid=CJ3hhpKHpLECFUcHRQodzg9OkA" rel="external nofollow">http://www.bariatric...CFUcHRQodzg9OkA. Just click on the 'Nutrition Facts' tab below the picture. It doesn't provide directions for VSG on this website, but it states it on the bottle directly as "Sleeve Gastrectomy: Chew 1 tablet, 3x daily" Hope you find a brand for your needs...

Disneytikifan 21 Posted July 18, 2012 I take the children's Vitamins. They taste better, but you have to take two. They also come in dinosaur shapes which my son likes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slabruz1963 0 Posted July 23, 2012 I take One a Day Vita Craves with Omega 3 gummies. I was told to take double the dosage so I take 4 a day and I take a B 50 complex Vitamin from GNC once a day. I just had my post op blood work done and all my levels have shown to be very good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wanttolose32 15 Posted July 26, 2012 I take a one of the chewy Vitamins, I think vita craves too. I take 2 a day but maybe I need to look into that. I tried Bariatric Advantage but I just could not get them down, yuck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ourjonesfam 18 Posted July 29, 2012 I take a one of the chewy Vitamins, I think vita craves too. I take 2 a day but maybe I need to look into that. I tried Bariatric Advantage but I just could not get them down, yuck. The Bariatric Advantage made me soooooo sick! I could not stomach them. I'm playing around with Vitamins now. I found a liquid but it's nasty too. I didn't know I could take the gummies. How far out post-op can you start the Gummy? I need something that I can stomach. I was looking for a prenatal gelcap but cannot find one to save my life! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Izuri 428 Posted July 29, 2012 I take the Celebrate Vitamins at the recommendation of my NUT. http://www.celebratevitamins.com/shop/ They are the mandarin orange flavor. I don't take the one with Iron, but it does look like they have one. They don't taste amazing, but they're easy enough to get down and only 1 twice daily.

I started them about 2 months out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
