bariatric fusion

Has anyone out there tried bariatric fusion? If so what flavor is your favorite? I bought wild cherry and it makes me sick just to smell it. I'm looking for something to replace it. Thanks in advance.

I tried a couple that a friend was trying to get rid of. It was a berry flavor, but I think it was a mixed berry (?).

Anyway, I didn't like just the couple I tried, and certainly not enough to take EIGHT of them a day to get the 200% of the USRDA that is recommended for us. I have never had ANY chewable vitamin that tastes good enough to take that many of every day!

Plus that would be a LOT of calcium carbonate.  One tablet has 300 mg calcium, more than half of which is carbonate (not sure how much, but more than half), so eight a day would be at least 1200 mg calcium carbonate a day. 

Wow!  I never paid any attention to the calcium content since I'm not about to take 8 (or even 4) of any vitamin every day.

That is a LOT of calcium that we cannot absorb.  Talk about kidney stones waiting to happen (for me, at least)!

Good info.

Yeah, I thought of the kidney stone issue with regard to you, particularly.  But yeah, that is a LOT of calcium we can't absorb.  Even if you only took four a day, you'd be getting at least 600 mg calcium carbonate.

If you don't mind me asking, which vitamins do you take?  I currently take Optisource, but I'm not thrilled with 4 a day. 

I primarily take the Celebrate brand now because they don't have any calcium carbonate in them (I have had a lot of trouble with kidney stones since my RNY).  

I also periodically take Centrum (and took only Centrum for the first 6 years after my RNY).

I liked the tropical flavor the best.
