chewable multi vitamin advice



Recommended Posts

Hi. I was banded a week ago and my doctor wants me to start on a chewable mulit tomorrow. Anyone have any suggestions as to which brand is one of the better ones? Thanks so much.

I had this talk today with my surgeon. In our class they said the chewable Flinstones. At my appt I asked if the chewable centrium was ok because I can't see how a childrens Vitamin is great for an adult. He said thats a great vitamin and he's going to stop recomending the chewable flinstones because thats now outdated from what they've learned about lapbanding.

I take the Bariatric Advantage Vitaband chewables. They are specially designed for lap-band patients. I also take Bariatric Advantage Calcium lozenges. Because my Dr. said that you should also up your calcium since your bones wont get the good work-out they get currently by lugging all your weight around.

I take chewable Flintstones too. This same question was asked a little while back and someone said that Flintstone Vitamins were not a good choice and not strong enough for adults. So I asked my surgeon, he said that healthy Children ages 4 and above and healthy adults need the same nutrient amount and the dosage of Flintstones are the same for anyone ages 4 and above.

I also take Caltrate Plus D chewable.

I take a chewable viactiv chocolate Multivitamin and a chewable viactiv Calcium caramel every day. They are yummy and at the same time gives me my sweet kick. Good luck!

      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.
