ProCare Health Bariatric Multivitamin with Iron 45mg Chewable - Fruit Punch Flavour (90 Tablets, 3-Month Supply)

Key Ingredients for Post-Surgery Nutrition

This multivitamin delivers a targeted nutrient profile to support your recovery and long-term wellbeing. Key ingredients include:

• Iron (45 mg as ferrous fumarate): Iron deficiency is common after bariatric surgery. This high-potency dose helps maintain healthy red blood cell production and energy levels.*
• Vitamin B12 (1,000 mcg as methylcobalamin): Methylcobalamin is the most bioavailable form of B12, supporting nerve function and energy metabolism.*
• Vitamin D3 (75 mcg as cholecalciferol): Essential for calcium absorption and bone health, especially important when calcium is taken separately.*
• Vitamin A (3,000 mcg): Contributes to immune function and vision health.*
• Folic Acid (800 mcg): Supports red blood cell formation and cellular growth.*
• Chelated Minerals (zinc, magnesium, selenium): Chelated forms enhance absorption, ensuring your body gets the full benefit despite reduced gut length.*

The formula deliberately excludes calcium to avoid interfering with iron absorption — a smart design that allows you to take calcium separately for optimal results.

How to Choose a Bariatric Multivitamin

Not all bariatric vitamins are created equal. When selecting a post-surgery multivitamin, consider these factors:

• Ingredient forms: Look for methylated B12 (methylcobalamin) and chelated minerals — they absorb better than cheaper alternatives.
• Iron content: Bariatric patients often need more iron. This product provides 45 mg per serving, meeting ASMBS guidelines.
• Calcium separation: A smart multivitamin excludes calcium so you can take it at a different time, preventing absorption competition.
• Texture and taste: A pleasant chewable like this fruit punch flavour makes daily compliance easier.
• Certifications: Gluten free, lactose-free, sugar free options reduce sensitivity risks.

ProCare Health's formula meets or exceeds the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) guidelines, giving you confidence in its comprehensive coverage.

What Makes ProCare Health Bariatric Multivitamin Unique?

After gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, or other weight loss surgeries, your body's nutritional needs change dramatically. Standard multivitamins often fall short, lacking the high doses and absorbable forms your body requires. ProCare Health Bariatric Multivitamin with Iron 45mg is specifically formulated to fill those gaps. Developed with input from leading bariatric doctors and dietitians, this chewable multivitamin delivers a comprehensive blend of essential vitamins and minerals in a delicious fruit punch flavour. Each tablet is designed for easy chewing and rapid absorption, making it an ideal choice for those with reduced digestive capacity.

Unlike many supplements that contain unnecessary binders or fillers, ProCare Health uses a clean formula that's smooth, small, and pleasant to take. The fruit punch flavour is carefully crafted to avoid the chalky aftertaste common with other chewables. Plus, it's gluten free, lactose-free, and sugar free, so it fits seamlessly into your post-surgery dietary restrictions.

Who Should Take This Multivitamin?

This chewable multivitamin is specifically designed for adults who have undergone bariatric surgery, including gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, and duodenal switch procedures. It is also suitable for individuals with malabsorptive conditions or those who need a high-potency, easily absorbed multivitamin. However, it is not intended for general use as a standard daily multivitamin due to its high iron content. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting any supplement, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, or have existing health conditions. Always read the label and follow directions for use.

Each bottle contains 90 tablets, providing a three-month supply when taken as directed (one tablet daily). The compact size and smooth texture make it convenient for travel and daily routine.
