Chewy versus Chewable

Sorry if this has been asked and answered a hundred times (did a search, didn't see anything). I have a bunch of samples of Multivitamins and Calcium and Iron supplements from my bariatric center. I'm am curious post-op if it is easier to get down the chewy or chewable type of supplements? The chewy tastes better to me, but they don't dissolve as easily as the chewable. Thanks!

      The only chewy Vitamin I take is the calcium. They are a lot more bearable than the huge calcium citrate tablets! HW: 437 SW: 376 CW: 332 RNY on 5/16/16

      I have had no problem with either since surgery.

    That is individualized preference so the best vitamin is the one you'll take.

    @@erp Thanks, though I was asking more from the standpoint of a reduced stomach size and the potential for problems getting down a chewy supplement.
