Calcium deficiency is a major issue for many people after undergoing weight loss surgery. Boosting blood calcium levels has often involved consuming handfuls of calcium supplements at prescribed times every single day after surgery.

Bariatric Advantage has made it easier and more pleasant to get the calcium your body needs by creating delicious caramel chews which contain 500mg of calcium citrate and 500 IU of vitamin D3. Nutritionists agree that this combination aids calcium absorption and makes it possible for bariatric patients to just consume one individually wrapped chewy caramel within an hour of breakfast, lunch and dinner to meet a 1500mg a day calcium requirement. With 90 servings per bag, one bag of Bariatric Advantage 500mg Calcium Chewy Bites will last most people an entire month. Convenience and great caramel flavor come together to make this one of the best ways to get your daily calcium.

Calcium citrate is more bioavailable than some other forms of calcium and is recommended for bariatric patients.1 It can be taken any time of the day, with or without food while other forms of calcium need to be taken with food for absorption. Additionally, calcium citrate may be more easily absorbed by patients who have had bariatric procedures that result in reduced stomach acids, as it does not require stomach acids for absorption.

Calcium requires vitamin D3 for absorption.

ASMBS guidelines call for 1,200-1,500 mg calcium per day for patients most bariatric procedure types, with the exception of Biliopancreatic Diversion Duodenal Switch (BPD-DS) patients, where they call for 1,800-2,400 mg per day. Divided doses are recommended with no more than 500 mg being consumed at once.

Calcium is a critical nutrient for bones and teeth–99% of calcium is found in teeth and bones. It also plays an important role in tissue health and nervous system health, along with muscle contraction.
