Gummie Vitamins



Recommended Posts

Wondering if anyone's NUT or Dr advises against gummie vitamins.. I like the gummie Vitamins better than regular chewables.. I have a complete gummie Vitamin and I took it pre-op every day and all blood work was great.. I also bought the Bariatric Advantage chewables for after surgery, but I hate the after taste.. So I've been taking 2 gummies in the morning and one bariatric advantage at night.. I'm only 2 months post op.. Any info would be appreciated!

My nut say no to gummies. They have no Iron in them so you would have to take that separately.

gummy vitamins are not good for many reasons. The most important thing is that we need Vitamins specifically made for bariatric patients. There are non chewables we can take. There are liquids and capsules. Bariatric Advantage and Celebrate Vitamins are made for us. Anything you get at the store isn't going to be sufficient in the long run.

I would really check with your doctor. Remember each doctor is different. My doc and NUT said as long as we were getting in the recommended amount they did not care how we got it. gummies were fine as long as they were giving us what they wanted us to have. I took gummies for the first few months, but then got tired of the taste. Please check with your doc though!

Can these be purchased in a store or are they online only?
