Hi! I am new at this forum. I will have the surgery on 29th of September and i am researching for addtional tips on how to prepare myself for the surgery. Is there a diffrence on women and men when it comes to vitamins? Does anyone suggest to take probiotics prior to surgery? I do have a great team and i do ask these questions to them as well. I just want to tap into the forum to see if any one has an suggestions. Thanks!

Hi Michelle,

What surgery are you having?  The nutritional and supplemental needs of both men and women are similar.  However, some may need more iron or B12.  Some women need adjustments to balance hormone levels.  Bariatric Advantage has a great probiotic supplement.  You should be able to research it here on OH.  Enjoy your journey to good health!

Clueless about weight loss and weight loss surgery of any kind.
