  • 10mg Magnesium

BariBursts help you avoid deficiencies.

Calcium deficiencies are sneaky – they don’t develop overnight and it’s nearly impossible to know when it’s occurring. Patients with a calcium deficiency do not look any different from the outside and blood work can actually look normal for calcium even if a deficiency is present.

Calcium and Blood Work

The other problem is that your blood work won’t necessarily show calcium deficiency. In a calcium-deficient state, your body will steal calcium from your bones in order to meet its needs. This means that your blood-calcium levels will look good, but your bones have less calcium which leads to more problems…

How much calcium should you be getting?

The good news is calcium deficiencies are easy to prevent with proper supplementation. The ASMBS recommends 1,500mg of calcium per day for gastric bypass and vertical sleeve patients.

100% Calcium Citrate.

Here's a vitamin industry secret: not all vitamins are created equal.

We are talking about specific vitamins like Vitamin D, Vitamin A and Calcium…etc. Each of these vitamins and minerals actually has multiple “sources” or “forms.” You can think of the source as the “type” of Vitamin D, or the “type” of Vitamin A.

Here’s an example:

Vitamin D is most commonly available in the forms Vitamin D2 and Vitamin D3. Vitamin D3 is much more bioavailable and is better absorbed, so that’s what we put in our supplements

Calcium is commonly found in 2 types as well: Calcium Carbonate and Calcium Citrate

For bariatric patients, calcium citrate is the preferred form.

Here's why:

  1.  As we covered above it’s virtually impossible for bariatric patients to get enough calcium through diet alone.
  2. After bariatric surgery, the low stomach acid environment dramatically affects your body’s ability to absorb calcium.
  3. Patients who have some form of bowel bypass (Gastric Bypass, Duodenal Switch, SADI-S) because the part of the bowel that is responsible for most calcium absorption can’t do its job since it’s been bypassed.

Look at point #2 – the low stomach acid environment dramatically affects your body’s ability to absorb calcium

Calcium Citrate does not require the presence of nearly as much stomach acid as Calcium Carbonate, so as a bariatric patient, you are able to absorb Calcium Citrate better.

Why would anyone put Calcium Carbonate in Bariatric Supplements?

Good question – there are 2 main reasons why a company would put calcium carbonate in its supplements:

1. It’s smaller – you can fit way more elemental calcium in the Carbonate form into a pill/chewable so it’s great for managing pill size or number of pills required

2. It’s cheaper – pretty self-explanatory, right?

Bursting with delicious juicy watermelon flavor! You can finally look forward to taking your calcium supplement each day.
