Why bariatric vitamins and supplements matter

Bariatric surgery reduces the size of your stomach. That means it also decreases the amount of nutrients your body receives. Without the right balance of vitamins and minerals, you’re at increased risk of malnutrition and a wide range of health conditions like anemia or kidney disease. 
 
To protect your long-term health, you’ll need to take daily vitamins and supplements for the rest of your life.  
And since maintaining a healthy weight is a lifelong process, staying connected to your care team can be key to your continued success. With the right plan in place, you can stay nourished, protect your health and move forward with confidence.
