Are there any vitamins that taste better than Flintstones?



Recommended Posts

I'm 3 weeks post op and my surgery manual suggested the Flintstones with Iron Vitamins. They are disgusting! Are there any other vitamins out for bariatric sleeve patients that are not too hard to get down?

You might try a liquid one. I think all the chewable ones are kind of gross. At least if you can drink it you can suck it down and then swish your mouth out with Water afterward. chewables get stuck in the grooves of your teeth and just linger.

I tolerate Flintstones the best spent a ton of money trying different things. Went back to Flintstones. Calcium was a whole other story. Yuck!

caltrate vanilla calcium chews are delicious! They are super soft and dissolve really quick. I have the vitafusion B complex also they are gummy vitamins also very tasty.

My 37 year old daughter (doesn't need/hasn't had surgery) and I both take Vitafusion Women's chewable (from Costco) and really like them, but they don't have Iron. I take a separate Iron tablet with some chewable Vitamin C (helps absorb Iron). It is best to take Iron and Calcium at different times. (Are the Caltrate chewable Calcium made of calcium citrate?That is the best kind of Calcium to take.)
