Calcium chews-what's your favorite



Recommended Posts

I'm going to try BA calcium chews, I've been taking Unjury chewables snd they are citrusy and chalky! I can't eat them much longer! Anyone have suggestions for the multi-vit? Also gagging on chalky Unjury brand chewable!

I just crush mine. I figure it's more economical and I only have to do one per day.< /p>

The BA chewables left a metallic taste in my throat for hours! Citrate is not as tasty as the carbonate! Go figure! Just like food...the tastier things are not the right things! I do like the lemon chews too! I bought a canister of unflavored crystals and throw then in something I drink. I am not on pre-op diet yet, but usually put a scoop of naked Protein and Calcium in my morning coffee. I can skip Breakfast that way! LOL

You are right. Carbinates do taste better than citrates, especially when comparing costco carbonates to BA citrates. I am going to bring this up at my next dr/ nut follow up at the end of the month ans see if I can switch to carbonates. They are far less expensive when buying from costco.< /p>

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
