Another vitamin question...

[donamay 13]

I'm not tolerating the children's chewable Multi-Vitamin with Iron supplements. Can anyone recommend a good tasting chewable? Are gummy vitamins okay?

I use the Centrium Silver chewable - it doesn't have a lot of Iron in it, so I also take a Celebrate iron supplement a couple of times a week.

I got the bariatric chewable from Twin Lab from Vitamin Shoppe. 60 of em for $12. Not a bad deal. And they taste better than the Flinstones chewables (which my dr doesn't recommend)

My surgeon says gummys and swallowables are ok 2 weeks post-surgery. I have been chewing the Centrum flavor bursts 4 chewables 2 times per day and they are soooo sweet I can't stand it! I tried GNC chewable mutli-vitamins for women again so disgusting tasting I can't get them down.... I would be interested to know what you end up with, not having good luck with products myslef!

My surgeon Dr. Copper told me no Gummy, just chewable tablets. He told me your body does not absorb all that Vitamins in a gummy texture.

Maybe it's the flavor of the Bariatric Advantage chewables that you ordered. I like the Lemon Lime and just finished a 90 count bottle. Just received the orange chewable today. Tastes like Tang.

My favorite thing from BA is the Calcium chews. I love the caramel flavor - my nightly "candy" treat.

Donamay: suggest you get a chewable multi without Iron. Iron can cause Constipation. I experimented with lots of iron tablets and finally found Ferasol, a plant-based iron that is non- constipating. Avail at Walgreens.
