New Product: BariatricPal Calcium Citrate 500 mg Chewable Tablets
Taking your calcium can be easy when you use BariatricPal Calcium Citrate 500 mg Chewable Tablets. They’re sugar-free and have only 5 calories each, and they taste amazing. Here’s what you should know.
The Need for Calcium After Bariatric Surgery
Do you really need a separate calcium supplement after weight loss surgery? Can’t you just take your bariatric vitamins and call it a day? Actually…that doesn’t work so well. Here’s the deal.
You’ll do better if you take your calcium separately from your multivitamin. That’s because calcium competes for absorption with iron. If you take it with your multivitamin, you may not get as much calcium as you think you’re getting, and that can leave you low in the crucial nutrient.
The good news is that with BariatricPal Calcium Citrate 500 mg Chewable Tablets, taking your calcium isn’t a burden. It’s actually fun!
Great-Tasting, Sugar-Free Chewable Calcium
BariatricPal Calcium Citrate 500 mg Chewable Tablets are an easy choice that won’t leave you regretting your decision. They are sweetened without sugar or aspartame, but they taste good. You can choose between Cherry and Orange flavors, or opt for the Variety Pack with both.
Calcium Chews with Vitamin D and Magnesium
Each BariatricPal Calcium Citrate 500 mg Chewable Tablet has 500 mg of calcium. You can take 2 to 4 daily, depending on your doctor or nutritionist’s recommendation. Because they have calcium in the form of calcium citrate, they’re less likely to cause stomach distress, and it’s not as critical to worry about whether you are taking them with or without food.
BariatricPal Calcium Citrate 500 mg Chewable Tablets also have 333 IU vitamin D3. This vitamin, also called the sunshine vitamin, helps your body absorb and use calcium.* The tablets also have 35 mg magnesium, which is needed for healthy bones and for brain function.*
Why Take Calcium?
Calcium is an essential mineral for bones and more. It’s part of your bone mineral, and without it, you can be at risk for low bone mineral density and higher risk for osteoporosis and fractures if you fall.* Calcium is also necessary for normal muscle and heart function.*
Even though it’s essential, bariatric surgery patients can be low in calcium. You may not be eating high-calcium foods, such as dairy products, especially if you develop lactose intolerance after weight loss surgery. Malabsorption can also be an issue in some cases.
BariatricPal Calcium Citrate 500 mg Chewable Tablets may do the following.*
- Support normal bone mineral density and metabolism
- Support breast, colon, and prostate health
- Support normal mood and relaxation
- Promote normal immune function
- Support heart health
Each bottle has 90 capsules.
Now that you know you can enjoy your calcium, the choice is easy for supporting bone health.* BariatricPal Calcium Citrate 500 mg Chewable Tablets taste good and are easily digestible, which is perfect for bariatric surgery patients.
