Comprehensive B Complex.
This product contains all eight of the required B vitamins as well as
the accessory nutrients choline and inositol. We provide additional B1
to help support patients in maintaining levels of this nutrient
especially in the early months after surgery. We also include a full
800 micrograms of folic acid, to maintain healthy homocysteine levels
and to support women who may get pregnant after surgery. Our B vitamins
are entirely free of lactose, which supports patients who may develop
lactose intolerance after surgery.
Water-miscible Fat-soluble Vitamins.
We use only water-miscible forms of vitamins A, E, D in all of our
formulas. This may improve bioavailability. We also use only natural
vitamin E for its superior bioavailability, and Vitamin D3, which is
more bioactive than the D2 form.
Calcium Citrate Calcium.
carbonate, the most commonly use form, needs to combine with
hydrochloric acid in the stomach to form calcium chloride in order to
be properly absorbed. Calcium citrate, by contrast, can be well
digested and absorbed at an pH. Because of decreased stomach acid after
gastric bypass, duodenal switch, or sleeve gastrectomy calcium citrate
is the preferred form of calcium supplement after weight loss surgery.
Trace Element Support. All of our multivitamins contain comprehensive trace element support with selenium, zinc, copper, chromium, vanadium and more.
Easy on the digestive system.
Many nutrients, especially minerals like magnesium and zinc can be hard
on the digestive system. We have opted for nutrient forms like zinc
citrate and selenomethionine that are both well absorbed and easy on
the gut.
100 percent sugar free. This formula is
entirely free of all sugars. It is sweetened with Sucralose (Splenda®).
Minimal “other” ingredients. Our chewable multivitamins contain the
minimal amount of low-allergen tableting materials needed to create a
chewable product. There is no wheat, gluten, egg, or dairy in our
formulas. We also do not include ingredients such as starch, talc,
vegetable oils, waxes, or chemical dyes.
Great Taste. We
know that many people experience change in taste perception after
weight loss surgery. Our flavors are selected by a focus group of
post-operative patients to help assure that you will like them!
