So my surgery is Monday morning and I'm looking for my post op vitamins. I've read all the threads with some great info but I have a problem with one common ingredient that I'm allergic to. Saccharine and all of its derivatives. It's so frustrating because not only are there no chewable or liquid vitamins without artificial sweeteners but all of the so-called "healthy, sugar free snacks" that I am allowed to have on my liquid diet have the same thing. So I'm thinking I'll just crush all of the vitamins but I'm curious if anyone knows of a brand that is all natural? I don't care if it tastes like #%*¥, I just want to stay healthy and get my nutrients. Or has anyone just crushed theirs during the liquid/gummy phase?

P.s. Stevia is also a sugar alcohol and I'm allergic to that too even though it's supposed to be natural!

Look into the zarbees brand of chewable vitamins, I believe they only use honey as a sweetener.
