TamaraRae 15 Posted May 10, 2016 Can everyone please give me some ideas on what you think is the best brand of Multi Vitamins, Calcium Vitamins and Protein powders ? ♡♡Tamara♡♡ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted May 10, 2016 I used a generic (like centrum) Multivitamin. I got the b-1, b-12, d+k dots, and d3 from drugstore.com. I can't remember the brands off the top of my head. I like Bariatric Advantage calcium chews (chocolate, caramel, raspberry, and lemon). Protein: ProtiDiet liquid beverage concentrates and Syntrax nectar fizzy navel (especially when I was on clears). Premier Protein, GNC lean 25 (orange cream), Quest salted caramel, unjury, Unjury chicken Soup, ProtiDiet creamy chicken and Tomato basil Soups, etc. I highly recommend you start with samples before investing in large tubs.

Michael Hamilton 37 Posted May 10, 2016 Walgreens brand multi and Calcium pill. Not sure what brand Iron and B12 subliminal. I order my whey Protein from http://www.rawdynamix.com/whey-protein/ they have lots of flavor and options on sweeteners. I like unflavored and unsweetened myself. Shipping is super fast and I find them cheaper than unjury. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted May 10, 2016 My NUT made a suggestion that you might consider. Take your Vitamin list to your pharmacy at a time when they aren't busy and they should be able to help you find what you need. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amandastearns 79 Posted May 10, 2016 I use alive multi (bariatric multi's make me sick), Bariatric Advantage Calcium, and Celebrate Iron. Premier Protein is my go too for Protein but you can always go to whatever store and get samples to make sure you like it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gammyonthego 6 Posted May 10, 2016 Hey There, Just adding my 2 cents worth. I love the Bariatric Advantage Multi Vitamins (large but taste like the good old fashion Flinstones and the calcium citrate Chews. (peanut Butter) Truly like Peanut Butter cups. Those are my treats during the day. lol. I take 2 of the multi in the morning and 2 calcium chews during the day. Their Protein powder (chocolate is my fav. as well) . It cuts down on so many different bottles sitting on my counter and having to keep up with so many. Hope this helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xo.jp 1 Posted May 10, 2016 The Centrum adult burst taste just like candy those are Multivitamins and the Calcium Brand citrical pearls as well. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sajijoma 1,324 Posted May 10, 2016 I like the Bariatric Advantage advanced multi EA chewables in mixed fruit flavor. They taste kind of like double bubble bubble gum mixed with baby aspirin. LOL for Calcium I love the Bariatric advantage chewy bites 500. I switch between chocolate which tastes a lot like cosmic brownies and caramel which taste just like the squares you use to make candy apples. There are other flavors, but I really like those. Now Protein is a funny thing. I usually buy the Syntrax Nectars. My fav is Twisted cherry and wild grape, but caribbean cooler and crystal sky are pretty good too. I also sometimes but Biochem chocolate powder and I'm going to be trying out Quest strawberries and cream(when it arrives. I ordered it from the Bariatric Pal Store a day or two ago). As far as bars, quest bars are pretty good and occasionally I'll have a pure Protein Bar. I don't think I could have handled either first out of the gate, but at 6 months, I've had no problems.
