Good Bariatric Multi-Vitamins



Recommended Posts

Hey friends! My surgeons office switched over to the "patch" Vitamins that you use on your skin, I can never remember to do those so I'm wondering if anyone knows of a good Vitamin you can buy in stores or online. Also does anyone know of a calcium citrate vitamin that isn't huge?!

I actually use the Patches for extra B-complex Vitamins...and I really like them, but for multi-vitamins, I use Opurity brand that has been formulated for Bariatric patients. They use extremely clean ingredients and NOTHING from China. There are several brands out there, but I like these for a few reasons

  • No ingredients from China
  • Great source of Vitamin K which some others don't include
  • Full array of B vitamins
  • Source of B-12 (Methylcobalamin) is better absorbed for bariatric patients than those from Cyanocobalamin
  • Includes Iron
  • Includes Iodine
  • Includes Selenium
  • Very minimal ingredient list outside of the vitamins

There are a lot of good choices out there, and I would suggest trying a few different brands until you find one that works best for you. Best of luck!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
