Flinstones VS the Fancy Schmancy Vitamins
I should cease to be shocked by people *****ly on others telling them what to do rather than educating themselves. Relying on so called professionals to monitor our vitamin/mineral levels is a recipe for disaster - as we have seen so often.

Does a sleeve still produce intrinsic factor? If not, the B12 in your multi is useless ... you will need a sublingual
I think most Sleeved stomachs do fine with the B vites. All I take is what's in my multi, and my B12 tends to run high.
The Bariatric Advantage Reps came to our last support group. I asked him that question about B-12 and did it really work if it wasn't sublingual.... the two of them kept doing quite a verbal dance to try and not answer the question, it was painful to watch...

You are investing in the surgery, invest in the proper supplimentation.

Optisource does not cover all the vits and minerals were need.

Well, I'm assuming that all surgeons provide different requirements from what I read. However, I haven't had any deficiencies while taking them, so they apparently work well enough for me. Of course, I adhere to a strict diet so if there happens to be any vitamins I am missing from taking them, I'm sure I get through the nutrients I take in.
