im a substitute teacher and i got my band about Ten months ago and have lost about 75lbs but i have been taking my vitamins . i have been getting sick sooo much since my surgery ive had 3 respiratory infections and keep getting colds ive had a cough for 3 weeks =/ is this normal ? is this due to my lack of vitamins ? what should i do ? im terrified of my germy students now =/

There's a packet of powder you mix with a glass of water that just has Vitamin C (which often can prevent colds) in it but the same company now also offers multi vitamin or other supplements in the same packet of powder form.

Plus...in the same form (packet of powder, mix with water and drink), there's a packet designed by a school teacher for this exact purpose! It's called AirBorne. Google it! You can get lemonade flavored packets measured to mix with a small bottled water for convenience.

1 Airborne Packet equals:

1,000 mg of Vitamin C

High in Antioxidants (Vitamins A,C, and E)

Excellent Source of Zinc and Selenium

350 mg of Herbal Blend including Echinacea and Ginger

Good luck!

Its just so important to take your vitamins, you really need to try....good luck!

i am now learning how important it is to take my vitamins i just ordered them and ill try airborne i was just scared to try it cuz it has bubbles like carbonation and i know we are supposed to stay away from it

I think that those bubbles devolve the vitamins but after sitting for a minute they are all gone. Swansons vitamins online also offer a bariatric line of liquid and chewables. Their other chewables are good too. Reasonable priced at top quality. I'd suggest some coq10 also.

If you let carbonated drinks sit out, they lose most of the carbonation.

Me too! Got my band in June, I've had strep, pneumonia and recently the shingles! But same as you I shipped my vitimans too, and every time I get the horrible pain in my arm from the shingles, I regret not taking them! So I've started taking them again!

Someone recently told me that Amway now offers some liquid vitamins. They come in a little plastic vial you snaps spout into a glass of water. Has anyone tried them?

Argh...I wish I could edit a post if I spot typos after it's posted. Oh well :-)

Should have been, "They come in a little plastic vial you snap open into a glass of water."
