Bariatric Advantage Calcium Citrate Chewy Bite, Sugar-Free, Pineapple Mango, 90 Soft Chews
UPC: 755571951144
Bariatric Advantage Calcium Citrate Chewy Bite is a sugar-free soft chew formulated for bariatric patients, providing calcium and vitamin D in a convenient, individually wrapped format. It delivers 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 clinical guidelines from the American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) for daily calcium intake in this patient population.
This product is distinguished by its focus on bariatric needs, with calcium citrate selected because it does not require stomach acid for absorption, which can be beneficial after certain surgical procedures. It comes in multiple flavor options, including Pineapple Mango, Chocolate, Caramel, and others, with each chew containing maltitol syrup and sucralose as sweeteners. The product is gluten-free and kosher certified.
