Bariatric Vitamin home delivery good? Or No?



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone! I went to my surgeons checkup appointment today and I was given paper work for a company called Nascobal They are a bariatric pharmaceutical company that ships monthly Vitamins to your home you get : Vitamin b-12 nasal spray prescription strength, Multivitamin, Iron+ Vitamin C, and Calcium+ D3 with Magnesium. They will bill my insurance and I pay a co-pay of 20 dollars a month. I'm just wondering if anyone else has used this service, or knows anything about these specific bariatric vitamins? I know they are all chewable. My surgeon thinks it's a great program to get the right vitamins that He feels I need to have and of course you can't beat 20 bucks a month for all of it. Thank you in advance! I hope everyone is doing well :)

I see my NUT on the 16th, so I will ask her about it. That would be an awesome thing, please let us know what you think of the program and the Vitamins, if you don't mind. Thanks!

My NUT actually gave me this! I was going to do it but I no longer have any insurance. It would have cost me $25!

@@fit4life123 That's good to hear! Not the insurance part but that other people have been told about it. They did say co pay will depend on what insurance you have.

I know I personally spend more than that on my Vitamin regimen a month so I don't mind paying a co-pay I just wonder how good the actual Vitamins are. And I've never used a nose spray for my vit B-12.

I actually was given this same thing my my NUT. The greatest part is the nasal b-12 because it's only once a week and apparently is absorbed better than when taken in sublingual form. It's also so nice not to have to think about it, they will just send it to you and that way you never run out. I will say that I did not like the multivitamin and continue to take Flinstones but I think the $20 is worth it just for the B12.

Update: I called this morning and my insurance approves it! My co-pay is actually 25 dollars but still great! @@sunflowerchild I didn't do the monthly shipment plan. I want to try them out for the first month first to see if I like them :)

Here's a number if anyone else is interested in calling to see if your insurance covers it. I have BCBS FEd

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
