my Dr had very specific proteins that were approved the first few weeks. All were whey isolate, only vanilla or fruit in the first 10 days, then we could add chocolate. Unjury and Nectars were one of the approved ones.
Drs also differ on when and what vits. We were to do chewables except for the b12 which needs to be sublingual. I have done CVS generic of Centrum silver chewables from the beginning. I do calcuim chews for my mid day dose of calcuim but do caplets for am and pm. I haven't had a problem with pills at all. Some Drs will start you with multis, calcuim and B12 until they see where your labs are. Almost everyone is low on D3 and those need to be dry, not in oil. Vitalady is the best place to get a really high dose one to get you caught up if you are low.
