Bariatric Multivitamin Capsule Recommendations?
My doctor's office recommends Thorne Medipro Multi Complete capsules. But, they are pretty big. They are about an inch long by 1/4 inch. And I have to take 3 per day. $55 for a 90 day supply.

We don't need a bariatric specific multi, just one that has 100% of most of the 28 vitamins and minerals we need. You might want to look for ones that require multiple pills - since those would be smaller.

I like the Celebrate capsules. They don't have iron and I think that makes them more convenient. I can take them with calcium or with a separate iron capsule and not have to worry about mixing iron and calcium. That way I spread out the 3 capsules that make up a serving over the course of the day and get better absorption.
