How many Flinstone Vitamins?

[sharon 0]

Actually they are costco kiddy Vitamins but since they are chewable it's almost like eating a sweet tart. Unfortunatly the % of diet numbers really don't make sense since they were meant for little kids. How many of those should I be chewing up? I currently eat 4 in the morning but I want to make sure my nutrition and vitamins levels are where they need to be.

I was told one a day from my Dr.

I took theFLinstone Vitamins forthefirst 2 months but now take the Centrum chewables, they tast so much beeter to me, not so vitaminy or tart.

I now take the Gummi Vites (like Gummy bears). I couldn't stand the Flintstones taste.

I take the Walmart brand of childrens chewables. On the label it says for children take 1/2 once a day for adults take 1 a day. I compaired them to all the others and they had the most % in them. My Dr. has me taking 1 in the am and 1 in the pm.

I did the math on Trader Joe's Children's Chewables! I take two of them, plus two Viactiv-type chewable Calcium thingys.

My doctor said if to take 2 flinstone chewable Vitamins daily. I bought the chewables that they sell on obesityhelp.com, I received them yesterday and they taste vitamee. So for now I will use them but later on I may switch to another. Can you tell me how you post the ticker at the bottom of you post, I can create it, but don't know what to copy and how to post it?

Thanks,

My doctor just said two of whatever children's brand I like, or one adult chewable. I get mine at costco. I also take additional Vitamin E and a B-complex, both of which are easy to swallow.

Alex, several WLS patients that I know take extra B vit's. Have you noticed if they help your energy level?

I also take Viactive calcium chews, Flax Seed Oil, Vitamin E, and Vitamin C. I have not had the problems w/hair loss that others have had.

Um, well, not really, I guess. I do notice that if I don't take any Vitamins for several days in a row I start to drag, but I can't isolate the effect of any of them in particular. I've always taken E but started adding the B when last summer my surgeon noticed my levels were borderline-low. And since insufficiencies can lead to irreversible neurological problems, he suggested a supplement. I agreed.

My Dr. has me taking the Vitamin B12 shot once a month, I take Centrum protegra once a day and one tums ultra for the Calcium ( with a Vitamin D tab) the tums is fruit flavored and easy to suck or chew and the centrum is not hard to swallow.

costco actually makes an adult chewable Vitamin that tastes better than the flintstone ones. You only take two of those. I also take the viactiv calcium chews. Teresa

My doc told me to take one flintstone in the am and one in the pm. He also has me take one Tums in the am and pm. The tums adds Calcium ( which we women all need plenty of) and it also neutralizes stomach acid early in the morning and before bed.

Hope this helps.
