Hello,
A great place to get great vitamins with great quality and prices
affordable are Puritan Pride Vitamins! I get my vitamins from them and
this place is the only vitamin company that have sublingual b vitamins in
more than 2 strengths! I love their vitamins and they are absolutely
wonderful! The website to order the vitamins from Puritan Pride is:
WWW.Puritan.com
Give them a try and keep me posted! You will love their prices and the
excellent quality of their vitamins. They carry a superb warranty on them
also! Other places to buy vitamins are Dominicks, Jewels, Walmart and GNC!
However, I would highly recommend a multi-vitamin from puritan's pride or
Dominicks and the B-sublingual, iron, calcium citrate at any of the above
stores that I mentioned. I recommend that you browse the puritan pride's
website before making any vitamin decisions.
Hope this helps and good luck!

Hi Monica,
My surgeon recommended CVS brand multi-vitamin plus iron. They are no
bigger than an aspirin in size so they can be swallowed easily. They only
cost about $8. for a year's supply. I've been using them since 4 wks post
op and haven't had any problems. You don't have to spend alot of money or
go thru alot of hoops to get an effective vitamin. Good luck.

The best prices that I've found on protein shakes are at
affordablesupplements.com . I thought their prices were fairly reasonable
and their shipping was quite speedy & shipping charge was reasonable.
As for vitamins, I just use a chewable supplement from Wal-Mart, along w/a
hair supplement from GNC (although I'm told that Wal-Mart's is good too),
and a liquid calcium supplement.

Hi there, if there is a "Dallar Tree" store in your are they have
an all natural multi vit./min. for (1) one dollar with 20 in a pack.
Everything in the store is $1. I brought some and like them. Good Luck!
