I cant stomach vitamins

I just got this kind of "keurig" for vitamins. It's called Tespo. It blends all of my daily bariatric vitamins so I can drink them instead of take them in pill form. I'm supposed to take 2 servings a day, but when I try to take them I just end up puking uncontrollably and it ruins my whole day in regards to being able to eat anything. Has anyone had any similar problems to vitamins like this at all?

  • I have always had a hard time keeping vitamins down. That's why I bought the Barimelts that melt in your mouth. I'm having my surgery on the 26th, but have been using the Barimelts for a month now.

  • This is common - You may want to try some of the liquid vitamins also - I mix em all up really cant handle the pill also i dont toss them but they do raise hell for a long time The powders work

    I had a very similar challenge. I was sick to my stomach for 6 straight weeks post-op and determined it was the multi I was taking, just too strong for my stomach. I switched to VitaCraves adult multi

The powders work good for me as long as i dilute them with protien shake

Thank you! I'm going to have to look into that!

I switched to VitaCraves adult multi gummy and take an iron gummy too and it has made a world of difference. No puking and able to eat food and keep it down. You just need to find what works for you. All vitamins are not created equally.

I’m a little over a year out and I still can’t stomach them. I have to have something already in my tummy to keep them down
