AquADEKs Multivitamins

[jfbecke 0]

Where can I purchase AquADEKs Multivitamin and Mineral Supplement - 60 Softgels. These where the suggested Vitamins that my surgeon told me to take after my surgery in 2004. I was able to find them online until recently. Any information would be very helpful.

@jfbeckeHi,

I'm assuming you're a full DSer as your surgery was done in 2004. At 13 years out, AquADEKs aren't nearly enough. Same with any type of softgel as they contain oil so we malabsorb them. You need to take your Vitamins separately in pill or capsule form (a.k.a dry). Have you had your bloods done recently? That will help to put you on the right track as to what & how much supplementation you need.

I can lead you to a sheet of basic DS supplementation, but it's really for newbies. You really need the bloods.

Thank you so much for your reply. Yes I have had my labs done recently and continue to have them monitored. My level of Vitamin D has always been an issue and in the last 4 months i had to have an Iron infusion because my iron was so low. Can you give me a list of recommended supplements that I need to be taking? My surgeon has left the practice and I can no longer find him.

Thank you,

Jerry B
