I've seen quite a few posts where people list the Vitamins they take. It seems a lot of people like the gummy Multivitamins but they don't contain any Iron. I haven't been seeing people list that as one of their supplements. Are you just not taking any iron in supplement form? Shouldn't you be?

Thanks!

My nutritionist told me to take a vitamin with iron even though I am over 50 and usually vitamins geared for my age do not have iron. She said that they were finding that people needed the iron after the sleeve. I am using Centrum chewables, just not the Centrum Silver chewables that I had originally planned to get. Centrum Silver has no iron.

I take Bariatric Advantage chewables: multi-vitamin, calcium, and iron.

Two multi-vitamins with iron a day for me. Costco brand

I take a multi-Vitamin (adult Centrum chewables) plus and additional Iron supplement. (plus some other vites too)

Hopefully everyone is getting regular bloodwork, so someone taking a gummy vitamin would learn if their ferritin was too low. Maybe they have a diet high in iron?

I'm a vegetarian and borderline anemic, my diet tends to be low in iron anyway - which is why I always supplement (and have since before the sleeve surgery).

I take Costco brand multi vitamin with iron AND an iron supplement. I am 54 and still having low iron levels.

Can you tell me if the Centrum chewables are large? Is it one a day or two? How do they taste? Thanks!

They (Centrum) are orange flavored. I don't have a hard time with taste so they taste fine to me, a little tart maybe. They don't taste like candy ..... I would expect the gummies do so more of a treat. I would call them large, the weight isn't on the package but I just weighed one and the scale said 2 grams. I take 1 a day which gives

100% of Vit C, D, E, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Vit B6, Folic Acid, Vit B12, Pantothenic Acid, Iron, Iodine, Zinc, Copper. It gives 70% Vit A, and smaller %'s of a few others. Calcium is only 108mg and I don't believe it is calcium citrate so I take CC later in two doses of 500 each. The bottle is a two month supply.

I am pre-surgery so after surgery maybe we have to take more than a standard Multivitamin, like two a day. I would assume there are tests to evaluate you for all of that periodically. At least I hope so.

After surgery, they just told me to take a chewable that says "complete" so iron will be included. Thanks for the info!!
