Start Vitamins Before Surgery

Posted on November 9, 2015 by Deb Hart

In the news

If you are considering bariatric surgery, start a good quality complete vitamin and mineral supplement now and have your primary care doctor check out your iron and vitamin D levels with simple blood tests.  A new study found that a good percentage of people are deficient in vitamins and minerals before surgery, especially vitamin D and iron.

It makes sense to get in the best health-state possible before surgery. Get or stay active, lose a few pounds and take a complete multi vitamin and mineral supplement.
