Why do I need multivitamins after a weight loss surgery?
The changes to your digestive system after a weight loss surgery are permanent. Therefore, it’s crucial to take your WLS multivitamin daily for the rest of your life to prevent a compromised vitamin and mineral status.
Your weight loss surgery is not a quick fix or a temporary solution. After the weight loss surgery, your body will absorb fewer vitamins and minerals. Your intake of these nutrients will also decrease due to the small portions you eat. These changes are permanent and won't improve over time.
To prevent a compromised vitamin and mineral status, it’s crucial to take your WLS multivitamin daily for the rest of your life, regardless of the type of surgery. This multivitamin will help maintain your energy, balance, and overall health as a vital part of your diet.
Your choice for a healthier life is long-term, and so is the intake of your WLS multivitamin.
