Our new Calcium Chews come in a delicious French Vanilla flavor and provide 38 percent of the daily recommended calcium intake and 100 percent of the daily recommended vitamin D intake per chew.

  10. I like Isopure unflavored. The main ingredient is Whey Protein Isolate. It's good stuff.
  11. We had age-based forums for many years but sadly they died off. Over the last few years, we've been consolidating forums instead of creating new ones.
  12. Thanks! I’m going to have our dev take a look at this. If you ever have an issue while ordering we have live chat available 24/7 ready to assist with points etc.
  13. Can you log out and log back in? Sounds like a caching or session issue. Let me know if that works. If the issue continues, please email store@BariatricPal.com so we can assist further You can not use points if you have any products in your cart that are subscription based, since it uses a non-standard store checkout. That will be changed within the next few months.
  14. Our Labor Day sale is being extended another 24 hours!
  15. We started carrying the entire Bariatric Advantage line. They're the original bariatric vitamin company and most popular by a long shot.

  17. I reached out to Feosol ages ago and they only deal with large distributors.
  18. A new study was recently released on the hot topic of vitamin patches. Transdermal Multivitamin Patch Effective in Gastric Bypass Patients? Conclusion: Multivitamin patch users are more likely to have vitamin D deficiency and lower serum concentration of various vitamins and minerals. Future large studies are needed on the efficacy of multivitamin patches before they can be recommended to bariatric patient population. You can view the details on this study here. What are your thoughts on this topic? Should the BariatricPal Store stop carrying vitamin patches or should we inform consumers about the study and let them make their own educated decision? In the interim, we've updated each store listing to include this warning: Please Note: Nutritional patches are a new technology. As with any nutritional supplements, consumers should use nutrition patches according to their healthcare providers' recommendations and regularly monitor nutrient levels through lab work as they would when taking any dietary supplements. According to a recent study, large studies are needed on the efficacy of multivitamin patches before they can be recommended to the bariatric patient population.
  19. I hear ya! Buy one month supply. If you don't like it, I will make sure that you're credited 100%.
  20. Check out BariatricPal Multivitamin ONE "1 per Day!" Bariatric Multivitamins from https://store.bariatricpal.com/collections/bariatricpal-multivitamin-one!

  21. What has more caffeine than a cup of coffee, the sweet and creamy taste of your favorite iced coffee drink, and only 3 grams of sugar? BariatricPal Iced Coffee Protein One delivers all that, and more, such as protein, fiber, and caffeine. Available on our website: http://bit.ly/2Zd5RK0
  22. Some do and some don't. I'd ask your surgeon prior to surgery.
  23. The BariatricPal Store carries the Premium Abdominal Binder for Bariatric and Plastic Surgery by DeRoyal at https://store.bariatricpal.com/products/premium-abdominal-binder-for-bariatric-and-plastic-surgery-by-deroyal. I personally didn't use one after either of my weight loss surgeries but patients tell me that it makes a HUGE difference. I used one after RNY reversal since that was an open procedure and I don't think I could have managed without it.
  24. Premier Protein has less than 1% Whey Protein Isolate according to the ingredients on the side of their box. Whey Protein Isolate is definitely the best source of protein for weight loss surgery patients, especially if you have a malabsorptive procedure. The BariatricPal Store carries a huge selection of Bariatric friendly Protein drinks at https://store.bariatricpal.com/collections/protein-powders. Here are some popular options: BariatricPal Protein ONE: MultiVitamin, Calcium, Iron, Fiber & Meal Replacement Single Serving Packet - 9 Flavor Variety Pack from https://store.bariatricpal.com/collections/protein-powders/products/bariatricpal-protein-one-multivitamin-calcium-iron-fiber-meal-replacement-single-serving-packet-9-flavor-variety-pack Syntrax Nectar Protein Powder Sampler Variety Bag - All 17 Flavors! from https://store.bariatricpal.com/collections/protein-powders/products/syntrax-nectar-protein-powder-sampler-variety-bag-all-17-flavors Bariatric Advantage HPMR High Protein Meal Replacement - Available in 8 Flavors! from https://store.bariatricpal.com/collections/protein-powders/products/bariatric-advantage-high-protein-meal-replacement Single-Serving Protein Powder Packets - Super Jumbo "60 Flavor" Sampler Pack from https://store.bariatricpal.com/collections/protein-powders/products/single-serving-protein-powder-packets-super-jumbo-60-flavor-sampler-pack
