About VSG

Sleeve Gastrectomy is a surgical weight loss tool in which the stomach is reduced to about 25% of its original size, by surgical removal of a large portion of the stomach, following the major curve. The open edges are then attached together (often with surgical staples, glue and possibly cauterization) to form a sleeve or tube with a banana shape. The procedure permanently reduces the size of the stomach and is performed laparoscopically and is not reversible.

Vitamins

Tried Bariatric Advantage chewable vitamins today.  I was so nausous I nearly puked in my car on the way to work this morning.  I've been using Bio-Strath liquid vitamins up to this point.  I think I'll be sticking with them instead.



BIO-STRATH CONTAINS NATURALLY 61 VITAL SUBSTANCES
10 vitamins and 19 mineral and trace elements that are factors in the maintenance of good health:

 
  • Complete line of vitamin B complex: thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), pantothenic acid (B5), pyridoxine (B6), folic acid (B9), cobalamine (B12), biotin (B7).
  • Vitamin C known to be a factor in the normal development and maintenance of bones, cartilage, teeth and gums.
  • Ergosterol (D2) is a factor in the normal development and maintenance of bones and teeth.
  • Minerals, such as: iron, copper, magnesium, manganese, zinc, and calcium and phosphorus that are factors in the normal development and maintenance of bones and teeth.
  • Trace elements, for example: chromium, nickel, cobalt, sulphur, vanadium, tin, etc. Trace elements are mineral elements that are essential in minute amounts to an organism's metabolism.
  • 20 amino acid, for instance: alanine, arginine, asparagine, tyrosine etc. Amino acids are the basic structural building units of proteins.
  • 12 essential elements, among them: lecithin, lipotropic factors, mannan, glutan, glutathione, DNA, ARN, co-enzymes Q6, Q7, Q9, Q10, etc.
