NEED QUICK HELP - VITAMINS!
I only take Bariatric formulated vitamins...and Bio-D-Emlusion in liquid form...so I have no clue what costco has to offer. I figure for me personally it's not about getting it the cheapest or the most available, it's about making sure my body has what it needs
Back two years ago when I was in the pre-surgery program they recommended OptiSource , which is only available in the USA..that bariatric vitamin always left a severe scratchy feeling in my throat....after that I switched to Bariatric Advantage and have it mailed...and I love it...chewable form and that leaves the guesswork out for me, if or if I am not receiving the vitamins that are suited to my bariatric surgery.
When I was going through the program pre-natal and ove rthe counter multi-vitamins were not recommended because of the way the nutrients are compounded and they lack some of what is needed by our special systems. But now at my local support group meeting I had heard that some of the NUTS and surgeons are recommended pre-natal vitamins..so I guess everyones' direction can vary.
