Calcium citrate chews?



Recommended Posts

Do they exist? I've tried the pills, so hard to swallow... The liquid Calcium makes nauses.... So I thought maybe the chews would be great... Any ideas?? Help!!

Yes, they do, I take Citrical 2 gummies per day. They chalky chewable Calcium were just too tangy for me post op, I couldn't stomach them at all and asked my surgeon if I could take the gummies and he gave the ok. Good luck!!

I get mine from my surgeon, I think they are Bariatric Advantage brand, but I might be wrong. the caramel are really good. So the last time I got caramel and a bag a chocolate so I can mix them up.

Calcet chewables - they are awesome! They come in chocolate and lemon. BA caramel chews are okay, too - but the Calcet chocolate are like little fudge squares! ;)

Also if you order 3 boxes shipping is free. That's what I did. They taste good. Like a little treat.

I just started taking the CitriCal gummies and they're not too bad. I found that a lot of the chocolate or caramel flavored chews contain Calcium phosphate and my doc wants me to take calcium citrate.< /p>

The Bariatric Advantage chewy bites (caramel, chocolate, raspberry or lemon) and the calcet Creamy Bites (chocolate or lemon) are both calcium citrate. They're probably a bit more expensive than other options, but they're very tasty - sort of my "dessert" at the end of lunch and dinner.< /p>

Is there a list of all the Vitamins that we must take after having the sleeve? I heard some take just the multi vites and others add lots more...I want to be sure i'm fully covered but also not taking stuff i don't need to take...also, do you all take the gummi vites (little critters) two a day or do you use more? Thanks!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
