I have always taken a Multivitamin and Omega 3 capsules...my surgeon said that many people come to him Vitamin D deficient... so maybe you can start there...

hope this helps...

D is great, I used D3 Vitafusion brand gummies however their multi has sugar in it and a liquid D3 and others currently from wellese brand, soon I will exchange back to gummies and pills as they're less cash in the long run.

So , adding also, I would suggest that now is also a good time you ask your surgeon and NUT to specify exactly what they ask of you for post op with Vitamins, every Surgeons is different, do it before you'd invest ahead, I understand you want to use them now though and my Surgeon was not against me choosing my own to add to what I must use to maintane post op including coq10 fatty acid but I also bought something he told me to toss in the trash from reading from others agenda.

If your not used to taking Vitamins, I would suggest starting out with a multi so you get used to taking them every day and you'll be healthy for surgery.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
