kadie777 50 Posted May 7, 2016 Does one need to take liquid supplements when on the liquid diet or can you use pills, chews or gummies? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RickM 1,752 Posted May 7, 2016 Ditto on asking your surgeon's team - it should be in whatever instructions they provide but if not, when in doubt, ask. I never had a liquid diet so the question never came up, but some find chewables or gummies useful early on due to the amount of inflammation they may have in their stomach post op (particularly for things like Calcium that usually come in horse pills.)
