Bariatric Vitamin C Supplements
Vitamin C Supplements are crucial for a bariatric patient. Vitamin C is an antioxidant, which means it protects the body against damage from free radical molecules, oxygen molecules that steal electrons from other, including DNA. But vitamin C’s most important function is to maintain a protein called collagen, which helps form connective tissue in the bones, skin, ligaments and other tissue. Because of this, vitamin C is important in wound healing, especially the wounds that were inevitably sustained during the bariatric surgery itself. Without the right levels of vitamin C, the surgical wounds won’t heal well. Vitamin C also helps the body make red blood cells and prevents hemorrhaging. A lack of vitamin C leads to blood clots which may then result in strokes and heart attacks.
“I have used the 24/7 patches for 30 days and I feel the difference. I feel like Im getting my nutrients now through the patches and food becomes fuel rather than survival. Well worth it! My next order will be to set up the recurring order.”
"I think these are better than the toaster pastries I grew up eating for breakfast. The filling is similar but not as sweet, and you microwave them instead. They're a great high protein alternative!
“After having bariatric surgery, I struggled to find a protein powder that I truly enjoyed—until I tried Cafe Bella! I have this ever single day. I don’t have to go to any expensive coffee shop for an iced coffee or frozen coffee treat, I just make my own! Please don’t even think about retiring this awesome flavor!"
"I'm so happy with these protein shots! It's the perfect size for me to be able to up my protein on the go, and I can fit them in my small purses. I like all of the flavors I've tried but the apple is my favorite so far.
“I have acid reflux and this coffee has helped in allowing me to drink coffee and not have an acid reflux symptoms. The coffee is excellent in regards to flavor and taste!”
"Love the fact that I get everything I need in just one pill and I get such wonderful service from BariatricPal. Once a year my supply comes and I never have to think about it. This site is such a huge help!"
"I am a die-hard marshmallow lover, though I swore off them after surgery. These, in small doses are the ultimate treat for me!!! My 5 year old granddaughter even chose these over regular marshmallows at our last bonfire, to my conflicted reaction of joy and dismay (MY marshmallows!). Thank you for the option."
