Nausea and vitamins



Recommended Posts

So I just started my Vitamins yesterday and they make me nauseated each time. Anyone else experience this? Does it get better with time?

This is common. I've found some Vitamins cause it for me, and others don't. Taking them with a meal can help. Spacing them out can help. Switching brands or types can help. Just keep playing around with it until you can figure out what works for you.

Good luck!

Thank you guys for the tips. Do either of you use an official bariatric brand?

I don't. I use a powdered one from GNC. Put it in coffee with some milk, and it's doable.. doesn't make me sick. I got some pills from my chiropractor, but have to be careful with them.

Flintstones chewables do ok for me too. I kinda switch around what I'm doing when it comes to the vites. Do make sure your Calcium is in "citrate" form.

I use the Bariactive brand I had to stop the chewables because my palette wasn't having it ,so I switched to the ones you swallow .On the Calcium I have to cut it and morter and pestle it up and put it in a yogurt just because they are to big for me to swallow right now, the Multivitamin I also put in yougurt as well its in capsule for .As for my B12 it comes in a nasal spray and I do Gummy Biotin and b-complex.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
