Do you feel like you should own stock in bariatric supplements? After all, you take them every day and will continue to do so. At times, it also gets confusing⌠which vitamins and minerals do you really need and how much. Should you buy a vitamin D supplement in addition to your multi? What about iron? Do you need another supplement for that too?  The right nutrients for your body after surgery in the right amounts can make a big difference in how you feel every single day.
Bariatric dietitian Isabel Maples says that the most important vitamin or mineral is the one you donât get enough of, the one donât absorb enough of or the one that causes the most damage if the level is too low.Â
Well, you donât want any of those three options to occur. Â Letâs get clear on what supplements you need so you get enough, absorb them and let them do their jobs. This episode is part 2 of The Vital 6: Essential Supplements Your Body Needs After Bariatric Surgery.Â
