Formulation:

Multi-Complete 45

• Celebrate Multi-Complete 45 contains all of the vitamins and minerals in a two per day, split dose option, patients just need to add calcium. This option is perfect for the patient who is sensitive to higher doses and needs to split dosing for better tolerance. This bariatric multivitamin meets the ASMBS standards of multivitamin and iron after weight loss surgery. This integrated formula provides maximum bioavailability as we carefully selected each form of vitamin and mineral to enhance interaction and absorption. MC- 45 is available in two chewable flavors (Forest Berry and Watermelon) or in a capsule
• The only bariatric split dose capsule with iron available in 2/day dosage.
• The only bariatric capsule to contain 50/50 blend of vitamin b12 (Methylcobalamin and Cyanocobalamin).
• Water-Miscible Vitamins A, D and E (WM): We utilize dry, water-miscible forms of vitamins A, D and E to further enhance absorption. This means that these nutrients do not need to be taken with fat to optimize absorption, unlike many fat-soluble vitamins included in other brands.
• Chelated Minerals: Mineral-Chelation means "attaching to." By chelating our minerals to an amino acid (the building block of protein), we have increased the likelihood that these minerals will be absorbed in a low-acidic environment.

Calcium Soft Chew

• Our Calcium soft chews are soft, delicious, won’t stick to your teeth and provide calcium citrate (500 mg) and vitamin D3 (500 IU/12.5 mcg) in each serving. This bariatric supplement meets the ASMBS standards of calcium supplementation after weight loss surgery.
• Water-Miscible Vitamin D (WM): We utilize a dry, water-miscible form of vitamin D to further enhance absorption. This means that this nutrient does not need to be taken with fat to optimize absorption, unlike many fat-soluble vitamins included in other brands.
