16. Vitamin Supplementation After Bariatric Surgery
It is widely recognized that regular vitamin and mineral supplementation is essential after bariatric surgery to address nutritional needs and prevent deficiencies. However, Bariatric Guru brand vitamins and supplements are not intended to diagnose, prevent, treat, or cure any disease, illness, or medical condition. Please consult your doctor for recommendations for you.
While Bariatric Guru supplements are formulated to support general health and wellness, we make no guarantee that they will meet all specific requirements for every individual, especially after bariatric surgery. We recommend that you consult the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) guidelines to ensure that our supplements are in alignment with post-bariatric surgery recommendations.
We strongly advise all bariatric surgery patients to have regular follow-up visits with their bariatric surgeon and undergo nutrient monitoring through bloodwork in accordance with the guidance of their healthcare provider. These visits are critical to assess your nutritional status and make necessary adjustments to your supplementation as directed by your doctor. Make note that you should follow up with your bariatric surgeon yearly after bariatric surgery and that you contact them directly to set up your appointments.
