Vitamins during clear liquid diet/mushie diet?



Recommended Posts

I can't find the answer to this question anywhere so here goes. Is it okay to take your Vitamins while your stomach is still healing? I would think the capsules may trouble the new sensitive and healing stomach? Is this true? If so how long until you can begin taking capsules? Thank you!

I was told in my preop class to not take vitimins until you so into the pueree stage. Vitimins in the liquid phase will make you nauseous. I hope that helps. :)

I would think your surgeons office would be able to tell you what they want you to do..

I had to do chewable or liquid at that stage. Centrum makes a great new one vitaMINTS that are great and much better than all the others I tried.

I was not cleared to start Vitamins until 2 weeks post op. I use the multi Vitamin bariatric patch. Swallowing was not an issue. Now my ppi, I opened capsule.

      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.
