Post-op vitamins

[jensjoy28 351]

I was told since we need less Vitamins then kids that is good...I still take Calcium too

I had never heard that before about adults needing less than kids...so thought I'd look it up...according to the government's National Institute of Health that publishes the Recommended Dietary Allowance and issues fact sheets for health professionals and the public on Vitamins and supplements, adults need more than kids of almost everything (Vitamin A, B6, B12, C, D, folate and Iron are the ones I looked at)...calcium was the one that I noted where adults 19-50 need less than teens and seniors.

I remember loving those as a kid...got some post-op and, let's just say my current impression did not match my memory...

That's what we tell our patients as well. But as I said each doc/nut is different. I will keep taking the adult or bariatric Vitamins and the Lil extra they provide. Can't hurt....I will need all the help I can get on this journey....

Kcolli28 Bariatric Advantage was the other company if you email them they will send you out samples also. They will return your email asking you to call them. When you call them they will your info and send you out samples. You get them within a few days. Awesome to just try out to see if you'd like before you buy.

Thanks everyone for so many options, because all doctors are different ill probably look into the ones especially for bariatric patients to be safe.

Just to add my 2 cents in... My Dr puts us on Centrum silver chewable. They take a bit to get use to but over all not too bad

I started with the Bariatric Advantage but they made me sick. Ive been taking Centrum Flavor Bursts multiviamin and mineral and you can take them with or without food.

Thanks ill look into those too. To take the silver is that because you are over 50 or just better for people after bariatric surgery?

My surgeon reccomends Trader Joe's High Potency chewable multi.

I'm not over 50. That is the one that my Dr likes for after surgery

I got the opurity from the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury site, and it makes me vomit violently just minutes after taking it. It has at least twice the recommended dose for almost all the Vitamins, and I think it's one of the B-vitamins that does it. Perhaps yours are a little too potent as well.

I'm a little annoyed, because they were EXPENSIVE.

I take one alive chewable Multivitamin in the morning and in the evening I take a tblsp of liquid Centrum with my liquid Calcium / Vitamin D.< /p>
