Hi, I need help picking the best vitamins pre and post op bypass surgery. I was told to stay away from sugar and sucralose, but every chewable I look at even the Fusion ones advertised on this Bariatric Pal app has sucralose in it. I'm worrying about the dumping syndrome. My surgery is scheduled for June 20/2017.

My NUT recommended Bariatric Advantage

I would stay away from chewable vitamins as they tend to have sugar alcohols in them (look for ingredients ending in -itol; e.g. xylitol). I tried some post-op and they caused diarrhea and smelly gas, and they hurt my stomach.

Thanks for the help. What do you use? How about liquid vitamins.

Thanks. Are Bariatric Advantage working for you without problems?

Yep, no problems with them for me.

My vitamin kit from the NUT did not include iron. I think I'll need it.

I’m trying the vitamin patches, so far, no problems.
