Bariatric Advantage Calcium Citrate Chewy Bite, Sugar-Free, Assorted Fruit, 90 Soft Chews
UPC: 755571949769
Bariatric Advantage Calcium Citrate Chewy Bites are a sugar-free soft chew supplement formulated for metabolic and bariatric surgery patients. Each chew provides 500 mg of calcium from calcium citrate, a form noted for its bioavailability and ability to be taken with or without food, and includes 500 IU of vitamin D3 to support absorption. The manufacturer references ASMBS nutritional guidelines, which recommend divided daily doses of calcium for this patient population.
This product is distinguished by its focus on post-surgical needs, as calcium citrate does not require stomach acid for absorption, which can be beneficial after certain procedures. It is available in 11 flavor options, including the Assorted Fruit variety, and each chew is individually wrapped for convenience. The formulation uses maltitol syrup and sucralose as sweeteners and is certified gluten-free and kosher.
