I am taking a multi-vitamin, but is there anything else we really should be supplementing right now? How about after the recovery stage when we are just doing our daily eating? I'm not big on swallowing pills, especially big ones, so I'm hoping we do not need a lot of vitamins. I can handle my one chewable a day. Just curious though. I've seen it mentioned a few times. THANKS!

I take Celebrate bariatric chewable multi twice a day.

Calcium citrate with D twice a day.

Bariatric Iron twice a day.

Sublingual B12 in the evening.

And Co-Enzyme Q10 50mg twice a day.

Okay at my appt. yesterday I asked if I needed a B12 supplement, he said no. I asked if I needed Calcium? he said did you take one before? I said no. So he said no. I think as a woman, I probably DO need one, but I guess I'd have to have a bone scan and detemine that through my primary physician. He also said not to worry about this. In my blood test that I guess they will do, they will check all levels and see if there's anything I'm in need of. For now, I'm on just a multivitamin. Interesting all the different things from different doctors!

I take sublingual B12 from Healthy Direct. I also take calcium citrate every day. I just had the results of a bone density scan and I am 92% of the age matched mean, which is normal with very minor osteopaenia. I have been post menopausal for 14 years which is unusual for a 52 year old, so I think I am doing pretty well under the circumstances.

I also take generic multivit, high dose Vit D, Q10, marine collagen, milk thistle, Omega 3, CLA and grapefruit seed extract. I may well be a junky!!

I'm getting a B12 (1,000 mcg) injection once a month through Kaiser.

I take vitamin b12 sublingual along with the daily multivitamin. Sublingual are easy to absorb and you don’t have to swallow.

Your blood work should indicate your b12 levels. Mine results indicated very low so I take b12 shots. Made a huge difference in my energy.

Vita4Life has some mini multivitamin tablets. Swallowing them won’t be difficult hopefully
