Question:
Does anyone know of a brand of vitamin that digests easily/quickly?

Im trying to find a good brand of vitamins that will breakdown quickly and therefore will be completely absorbs. Ive been taking vitamins from GNC but Im concerned that these vitamins may leave my body partially undigested because of my shorter digestive track. Any suggestions?    — [Anonymous] (posted on July 9, 2001)

I use Flintstone's Complete children's chewables. It has all your major vitamins and calcium and iron. As an adult and a post-op I take 3 daily to get all my vitamins absorbed. Plus they're pretty darn tasty!

I also take the Complete Flintstones Chewable. I take 1 3x a day. I was told that children's chewables are more absorbable and are easier on the stomach since they don't have to be broken down by stomach acids.

I could not take the chewables. They made me gag and gag. I will be one yr post op next month, I can't believe that, I take quick dissolving vits from www.vita4life.net They are expensive, but one container lasts me 3 mos, so it's not too bad. They work my labs are all good. I take less than they rec. I take 4 a day and for distal bypass they say 12 per day. But my labs are good. Good luck, Mary Grossa
