Your health professional will advise you need a WLS specific Multivitamin and Mineral supplement to prevent health problems related to nutritional deficiency.
Left unmanaged, B12, Iron and Calcium deficiency, for example, may leave you with health problems like fatigue, poor memory, poor immunity and brittle bones.
Undergoing bariatric surgery is a fantastic tool to improve health, and it comes with a life long commitment to Multivitamins and regular blood testing.
